It was inaugurated on 26 November 2012 and opened on the timetable change on 9 December 2012. The construction of the 320-metre-long station cost about CHF 10.5 million.[3] In addition to the construction of the platform and the underpass, the track was adapted for the S41 service, preserving the remains of the "Sumpfweiche" ("swamp points" at the former direct connection with the line to Luzerne).
