The station building displays symmetrical pavilions connected through a central waiting room that reflect Renaissance Revival design principles typical of the era. This architectural arrangement gives the place its distinctive character and continues to define how visitors experience the building today.
The station is regularly served by S-Bahn trains offering connections in both directions with good frequency for travelers planning a visit. The location in the valley and the elevation of the site should be considered when planning a journey.
The station sits at the highest point of the original railway line and opened with three passenger tracks and two freight buffer stops. This initial setup reveals the location's early importance as a regional transport hub.
