History
editDresden-Strehlen railway station opened in 1903 to serve as a haltepunkt. The station's design was commissioned by Royal Saxon State Railways at a cost of 56,656 Marks.[3] Architect and painter Bernhard Fellmann completed a watercolor of the station in 1980. Today, the painting is a part of Museum für Sächsische Volkskunst's collection located in Dresden.[4] The station's building was bought by a consulting firm in 2017 and proceeded to refurbish the structure to house their IT professionals. The building also includes a restaurant, public transit facilities, and an event space.[5]
As a part of the Stadtbahnprogrammn 2020 planned by DVB, the plan called for realignment of tram routes 9 and 13 to connect with railway services at Dresden-Strehlen.[6] The plan was approved by Landesdirektion Sachsen in 2016.[7] Construction on the project began in March 2017.[8] The construction project overran its initial budget of 16.7 million euros to 24 million euros, a 44% increase.[9] The realignment began operations in July 2019.[10]
