Peitz Ost station

Peitz Ost railway station is located far outside the centre of the Brandenburg town of Peitz. It went into operation in 1872. An ensemble of buildings from the early days of the station has been preserved and is a listed building. Since the 1970s, the station has gained in importance as a connecting station to the Jänschwalde power plant and to an extensive network of coal railways.
The station is located on the eastern outskirts of the town of Peitz in the Spree-Neisse district in Brandenburg, about 3.5 kilometres from the market square, at the northeast corner of the extensive Peitz pond area at the Hälterteich. The Alte Bahnhofsstraße connects the station with the city. The station is located at kilometre 173.9 of the Halle–Guben railway, counted from Halle Hbf, 14.3 kilometres from Cottbus station. The line runs approximately from southeast to northwest in the area of the station. Beyond the tracks, the Jänschwalde power plant, one of the largest power plants in Germany, was built in the 1970s.
