Gundelfingen station is a railway station in Gundelfingen in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It lies on the Mannheim–Karlsruhe–Basel railway (Rhine Valley Railway). The Freiburg bypass, which is reserved for freight traffic, branches off south of the station. It is served by Breisgau S-Bahn (BSB) and DB Regio trains and has two side platforms. DB designates it as a class 5 station.

History

Gundelfingen station was established on 30 July 1845 with the opening of the Offenburg–Freiburg Hbf section of the Rhine Valley Railway from Mannheim to Basel via Karlsruhe.

The freight bypass branching off in Gundelfingen was inaugurated on 4 September 1905 to relieve traffic at Freiburg Hauptbahnhof.[4][5][6]

The entire route of the Rhine Valley Railway, including Gundelfingen station, was electrified In 1955.
