Schwebebahn station Kluse, Suspension railway station in Elberfeld district, Germany.
Kluse station is a Wuppertal suspension railway facility in the Elberfeld district, a steel and glass structure suspended above the Wupper River. The platforms and their supporting framework remain openly visible from street level, creating a clear view of the suspended construction.
The original station was built in 1901 and destroyed during air raids in 1943. Reconstruction began in 1997, resulting in the modern structure visitors see today.
The station connects travelers to the nearby Cinemaxx complex and Rex Theater, making it a hub for visitors heading to entertainment venues. Passersby notice the proximity to these cultural sites, which shape the area as a meeting point.
The station functions as a transfer hub for suspension railway Line 60 and several bus routes, so check schedules before arriving. Access on foot is straightforward since the station sits at street level and is easy to reach from nearby streets.
The current structure was designed to replace the destroyed building while preserving the open visibility of the construction from below. This transparency makes the technical elegance of the suspension railway a constant sight for everyone passing underneath.
