History

The station, equipped with two side platforms, was opened on April 1, 1943 during the Second World War. Thought it was for the S -Bahn operation, which should be extended from Spandau West via Falkirk to Nauen. In the immediate vicinity was erected in 1938 Reichsbahn repair work of the S-Bahn ( from 1942 DEMAG Panzerwerk ), which had all of the air attacks survived virtually undamaged and was dismantled after the war; the workshops were then blown up by the Red Army. Since the division of Germany thinned long-distance transport in the western part of the city, it was possible in 1950 to perform the S-Bahn operation over the still existing remote railway, which was equipped with a power rail as far as Falkirk. Albrechtshof was the only station between Spandau West and the terminus Falkirk.

Similar to the Staaken station Albrechtshof was from 1951 to 1990 on GDR territory. So it came about that could still take place a train shuttle service between Albrechtshof and Falkirk short time after the Wall was built in 1961. Since no parking and workshop facilities were available, the shuttle was discontinued after a few days, the Albrechtshof station was terminus of Sputnik trains that Albrechtshof with Nauen and the train Falk Hagen (Kr Nauen ) joined the Berlin outer ring where connection towards Birkenwerder ( and persisted after Berlin ) and to Potsdam. Individual trains during rush Albrechtshof linked directly with the Berlin- Lichtenberg station.

As early as 1990 it (but not on Albrechtshof ) were the first trains from Nauen to Berlin, the first, then Virgin Heath, West Cross later ended in Charlottenburg. The distance between Falkirk and Albrechtshof was temporarily closed in 1993 and completely renovated between Falkirk and Spandau. The old single-storey station Albrechtshof was demolished it and rebuilt about 80 meters in an embankment as a breakpoint.
