From the eastern pedestrian tunnel also an entrance to the subway station. In both streets are bus stops near the station as well as bicycle parking and close to a P & R car park. Elevators in the eastern pedestrian tunnels allow barrier- free access to all platforms.
S-Bahn station
After the Prussian King Wilhelm I to build a ring road around Berlin had had decide to 1871-1877 the traffic was recorded in several steps. Near the Jungfernheide an eponymous station was inserted with a central platform on May 1, 1894 retrospectively. As from 1908 suburban railways should stop here, who drove from the located on the Spree Lehrter station in the western suburbs Wustermark, Nauen and on, in addition to the already existing platform A, a further ( Platform B ) was added.
In the 1920s, have gradually been electrified by the suburban lines with busbars, because there the new S -Bahn system should keep feeder. On Virgin heath station that happened on the platform B in 1929.
The Siemens group had funded its own S- Bahn line for his work with the Siemens train workers. The connection of these built 1927-1929 new line was made on Virgin heath station. For further east of the existing platforms built a third, who was called " platform C".
Thus, the curiosity arose that of the Siemens train coming ( from garden box ) S -Bahn trains stopped twice at the station Jungfernheide if they ended up there: first on the platform B and after about 200 meters on the platform C.
During the Second World War, the operation was maintained until April 1945, until the station Jungfernheide was shut down. But in June drove here again steam trains in the temporary traffic and from August electric trains.
After the dismantling by the Soviet occupying power - - remaining mainline tracks Lehrterstraße railway from Jungfernheide to Spandau also electrified To the Lehrter station, which is still transacted suburban services to Wustermark and Nauen shut down, that were. On August 28, 1951 here drove S- Bahn trains connect Spindler field to Staaken. Lehrterstraße station was closed, travelers had to change into the countryside on their suburban trains in Staaken and Falkirk.
Due to the S-Bahn boycott in West Berlin, passenger numbers declined rapidly. In turn, several new metro lines were built, the subway line 7 to Spandau. For the C platform was demolished and widened the platform B. A shift from the S to the subway was no longer possible, because the kingdom workers strike the operation of the S -Bahn was completely shut down on Jungfernheide Station in September 1980; only a short network within the city was still operated by the Deutsche Reichsbahn.
Provisionally drove 1992-1994 regional trains from Virgin heath in the direction Nauen on the former S -Bahn track. A few months later, the operation was discontinued and moved to West Cross station, so that the reactivation of the ring road could be made here.
After years of work went on 15 April 1997, the S platform with the S-Bahn extension of Westend in operation. Now, went here after 17 years again S -Bahn trains. 1999 reversed the ring trains already up to two stops away railway station west harbor. On 15 June 2002, the circle line was put into operation fully again.
Subway station
Metro Station Jungfernheide was opened on 1 October 1980 on the occasion of the commissioning of the routes from Rohrdamm to Richard -Wagner-Platz subway line U7. Originally a transfer to the S -Bahn was here at this time planned. This was but as a result of the empire workers strike two weeks have been shut down before.
The design took over, as with all Berlin's subway new buildings during this period, the architect Rainer Gerhard Rümmler. There was a decorated with colorful, fired on ceramic tiles floral motifs station, which however is very dark due to the sparse lighting.
The station is designed with one over the other two platforms, since a link to the airport Tegel was provided by the extended subway line U5. For this purpose, the eastern edge of the platform would have been used at both levels, respectively. Given the planned closure of Tegel Airport in favor of Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER ), these considerations are provisionally not pursued. The extension is provided in the zoning plan. Today at the upper platform the trains in the direction Rudow, on the lower platform the trains direction Rathaus Spandau.
On 17 December 1997, the metro station was an elevator that connects the two platforms with the porch.
Since 2003, in one of the previously unused track tunnel, the fire department training facility of the Berlin U -Bahn.
