History

In November 1866, a Barmbek line was built for horsecars by the Hamburger Pferde-Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft (Hamburg horsecar railway company). [5] On 11 April 1895, the first new built electric tram line was opened from Barmbeker Zoll (Barmbek customs facilities) to Ohlsdorf Cemetery, [6] and on 6 December 1906, the Hamburg-Altonaer Stadt- und Vortbahn (City and suburban railway) — since 1934 abbreviated Hamburg S-Bahn — opened the double track line Ohlsdorf – Blankenese, including Barmbek station. [7] Planned as an electric railway with overhead lines, the trains were first steam powered, because of difficulties concerning the construction of the electrical installations and a delay delivering the engines. [8] In 1912, the Hamburger Hochbahn opened first part of the Hamburg U-Bahn circle line from Barmbek station via Mundsburg to central station. [9] Until 1947, Barmbek station was written Barmbeck. In end 1980s, constructing the bus station at the north side of Barmbek station gave the whole station the new westside entrance. [10]
