Oberursel’s Station Grand Re-opening: The Bahnhofsfest
May 27, 2012 By Leave a Comment
This Whitsun weekend will be one that many people in Oberursel remember for a long time to come, because it was this weekend that the station building re-opening with what may be the first “Bahnhofsfest” that it has even seen.
“May be” because no-one knows whether they held one when the building was originally opened in 1901.
The day started at 11am when a large crowd gathered in front a stage that had been set up partially on the U-Bahn platform. Dr. Justus Förschner of SEWO, the organisation responsible for the renovation work, opened the proceedings with the Mayor Hans-Georg Brum.

After a brief look back at the history of the building, how the dual railway connected had benefited the development of the town, and not forgetting the fact that it had taken over 20 years to find a solution to the “station” problem (the building had been run down, with ticket sales only at peak hours), the key was officially handed over to the new tenants.
