Pfungstadt station is a railway station in the municipality of Pfungstadt, located in the Darmstadt-Dieburg district in Hesse, Germany.

History[edit]

The station was opened with the Pfungstadt Railway by the Grand Duchy of Hesse State Railways in 1886. This was taken by Grand Duke Louis IV of Hesse-Darmstadt as an opportunity to give Pfungstadt town privileges. The original station building has been demolished. A new, simply-equipped station with a 140 metre-long platform was built on the foundations of the historic station for the reactivation.[4] Access for local traffic is provided by a terminal loop and a park and ride parking area. Of the total costs of €2.8 million, the state of Hesse assumed €170,000 and the rest was shared by the town and the federal government.[4]
