Alsterdorf is a metro station on the Hamburg U-Bahn line U1. The station was opened in December 1914^[1] and is located in the Hamburg district of Alsterdorf, Germany. Alsterdorf is part of the borough of Hamburg-Nord.

Location

The 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

Alsterdorf 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.
