Location
editThe station is located on the southern edge of the eponymous district of Alsterdorf, right on the border with Winterhude. For several years now, the Hamburg police headquarters have been in the immediate vicinity. The track of the Hamburg freight bypass is located on the same embankment south of the subway tracks.
Structure and history
editAlsterdorf has a central platform suitable for 120-meter-long trains on the embankment. The only access is at the northeast end and has a fixed and an escalator. Since there is no elevator, the platform is not barrier-free.
The stop was opened as early as 1914 as part of the former elevated railway branch line Ohlsdorf - Kellinghusenstraße, which later became part of today's U1. The access building was last extensively modernized at the end of the 1990s. The originally existing building was demolished as part of the modernization measures.
