History

The Ansbach-Würzburg line existed before the station building, which was opened on 1 July 1864. The station was built from 1862 until the end of 1864 and became operational on 1865. The station building is a three-storey building with a hip roof and low wings, built of quarried stone with Haustein (a stone used in masonry in Germany) trimmings and dentils made of brick. The line to Rothenburg ob der Tauber was opened in November 1873. The line to Neustadt an der Aisch was opened in 1898.[5]
