Angermünde station

Angermünde station is a transportation hub in the city of Angermünde in the northeast of the German state of Brandenburg. The station opened on 15 November 1842 on the Stettin Railway between Berlin and Szczecin and is the starting point of the Angermünde-Stralsund line to Stralsund, the Angermünde-Schwedt line to Schwedt and a disused branch line to Bad Freienwalde.

The station was opened on 15 November 1842 by the Berlin-Stettin Railway Company with the line from Berlin. On 15 August 1843, the extension to Szczecin was opened. In the following years the station grew into a major junction with the opening of lines to Stralsund , Schwedt and Bad Freienwalde . In 1879, the BStE was nationalised as part of the Prussian state railways. The station was originally built on an “island” surrounded by tracks . In 1906, the tracks were redesigned and all the tracks were moved to the west side of the building. In 1861 the original station building was replaced by a new building. The old building later served as a post office and a police station, but it is now unused. As a result of numerous changes to the building during the period of East Germany the old building has disappeared. The station complex is a listed building.
