Barmbek is a railway station and transport hub in Hamburg, Germany, for the underground railway (U-Bahn) system and the suburban railway (S-Bahn) system. The station is located in the district of Barmbek-Nord, Germany. Barmbek-Nord is part of the borough of Hamburg-Nord.
The suburban railway part of the station at the north side is listed as Barmbek (S-Bahn), No. 0376 and category 4 by the Deutsche Bahn. The DS 100 code is ABAG.
In November 1866, a Barmbek line was built for horsecars by the Hamburger Pferde-Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft (Hamburg horsecar railway company). On 11 April 1895, the first new built electric tram line was opened from Barmbeker Zoll (Barmbek customs facilities) to Ohlsdorf Cemetery, and on 6 December 1906, the Hamburg-Altonaer Stadt- und Vortbahn (City and suburban railway) — since 1934 abbreviated Hamburg S-Bahn — opened the double track line Ohlsdorf – Blankenese, including Barmbek station. Planned as an electric railway with overhead lines, the trains were first steam powered, because of difficulties concerning the construction of the electrical installations and a delay delivering the engines. In 1912, the Hamburger Hochbahn opened first part of the Hamburg U-Bahn circle line from Barmbek station via Mundsburg to central station. Until 1947, Barmbek station was written Barmbeck. In end 1980s, constructing the bus station at the north side of Barmbek station gave the whole station the new westside entrance.
