Jena Saale station (Saalbahnhof) is a station in the Jena suburb of Jena-Nord in the German state of Thuringia. It lies at line-kilometre 25.50 of the Großheringen–Saalfeld railway.
The station, which is 144.32 metres above sea level, was opened on 30 April 1874 with the opening of the Saale Railway (Saalbahn) between Großheringen and Saalfeld. The station on the Saale Railway, known as the Saalbahnhof, was soon called Jena Hauptbahnhof (main station) and, from 1909 until the commissioning of the provisional Jena Paradies station on 26 September 1999,[3] was the city's main station for long-distance traffic that ran north–south. All the services on the Berlin–Munich route stopped here during that period.
The station, which was classified by Deutsche Reichsbahn as class II, is now designated as category 6. Between May 2006 and March 2007, Saal station was adapted to modern requirements and all facilities, which were no longer considered absolutely necessary, were demolished, including the canopy on platform 2/3, which was replaced by a sheltered waiting area. Saal station is now served by Regionalbahn services to and from Großheringen/Naumburg, Saalfeld and Pößneck.
Following changes in the use and ownership of the building, the Kulturbahnhof Jena (Culture station Jena) was created out of the entrance building and its annexes. This building is a heritage-listed monument.[4]
The station has been controlled by an electronic interlocking at Jena-Göschwitz and built by Siemens since 27 November 2011. One day before, the dispatchers signal box, "Jm", was taken out of operation. The guard signal box, "Js", was also closed. Until September 2006, there was another signal box, "Jn". All were mechanical signal boxes of the Jüdel type.[6]
