History

Start time

Between 1846 and 1848 presented the Royal Württemberg State Railways from the south, gradually the northern runway ready. You should connect with Stuttgart Heilbronn. On October 11, 1847 regular operation began on the section between Ludwigsburg and Bietigheim. As now, the only intermediate station on this about nine and a half kilometer stretch part Asperg station was opened, equipped with a small two-storey reception building. He was about one kilometer east of the village. The train station leading the way initially remained unpaved and was barely passable in bad weather. In 1852, the railway line from Stuttgart was twofold passable to Bietigheim.

Gradually Asperg grew towards the train station. Along the Bahnhofstrasse created new residential and commercial buildings. The station building was a one-story annex on the south side.

Asperg to railway junction

1896 asked the city administration Markgroningen the state railway for the first time to the construction of a spur track Asperg Markgroningen. The Asperger community councils dealt extensively in 1899 with this new opportunity for the city. The current number of factories was not enough to them to obtain the expected prosperity. At the new branch line that would run south of Asperg, a new industrial park to be built that would give incentive for large companies with sidings. The councilors praised the good neighborly relationship between citizens and ensured the city mayor of Markgroningen their support. It was followed by a petition to the then competent Württemberg Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and a further petition to the Second Chamber of Parliament. However, the two letters did not bring the desired encouragement, because the construction project ever in the competition was a starting point in Ludwigsburg; finally it came to the construction of the line Ludwigsburg- Markgroningen.

The post office, which was housed in the Town Hall since 1877, now took place in the northern part of the reception building. The windows and doors to the platform side on the ground floor are provided with round arches. The hipped roof has almost the height of the two-story facade. The former gable dormers, however, no longer exist.

On the northern side bordering a slim single-storey extension with pitched roof, which ends in a kind of pavilion with a hipped roof. In these sections of the building were a drive-through to the tracks for the post office, storage rooms, and a recreation room and a laundry room for railway workers. Instead of the lounge public toilets were set up later.

The freight terminal building was used from 1913. The inauguration of the reception building completed the State Railway Board on 22 April 1914, and demolished the previous building.
