History | |
Opened | 2 June 1868 |
Döbeln Hauptbahnhof is the largest station in Döbeln in the German state of Saxony. Now an unstaffed halt, it was built as a wedge-shaped station (German: Keilbahnhof). The station is listed by the rail authorities with the abbreviation of DDE.
The diesel-worked Borsdorf–Coswig and electrified Riesa–Chemnitz lines cross in Döbeln Hbf.
The first station in Döbeln opened in 1847 at nearby Großbauchlitz along with the Riesa–Chemnitz line. The current station was built with the opening of the Döbeln–Leisnig section of the Borsdorf–Coswig line on 2 June 1868. Between 1892 and 1926 the Döbeln horse tramway (Döbelner Straßenbahn) connected the station and central Döbeln.
