Radebeul Ost (east) station is a station in the town of Radebeul in the German state of Saxony. It is in the suburb now called Radebeul-Ost. The station buildings are located within the boundaries of Alt-Radebeul (old Radebeul) on Sidonienstraße. The station is on the Dresden S-Bahn network.
The station is now divided between the heritage-listed station area on the Dresden S-Bahn, the terminal station of the narrow-gauge Radebeul–Radeburg railway (Lößnitzgrundbahn) and its associated facilities, the old goods shed, the narrow-gauge railway museum and the former station building, which is no longer used for rail purposes but is instead operated as the Radebeuler Kultur-Bahnhof (“Radebeul Culture Station”), including an events hall, a library located in the west wing (former waiting room) since 2002 and the adult education college of Meissen district (Volkshochschule im Landkreis Meißen) located in the east wing since 2013. In addition to the events hall in the former station building, the renovated station forecourt is also used as a venue for events.
The station area includes various heritage-listed buildings and it also includes a depot and exhibition space for the storage of many heritage-listed, narrow-gauge locomotives and carriages.
On 27 March 1900, the Saxon Ministry of Finance approved a proposal for a new entrance building to modernise the traditional station building that had been opened in 1860. In May 1900, it authorised the construction of a new building along with the reconstruction of the existing one.
The now heritage-listed station consists of the entrance building, the platforms with canopies and pedestrian subway, a waiting room originally with sections for four passenger classes on the platform, workshop, a goods shed with a building at its end, sets of points, a transporter wagon facility, a loading ramp, two small residences, a boiler house, an engine shed, a water crane, a coal loading facility and a loading road with cobblestone paving.
The narrow-gauge Radebeul–Radeburg railway (Lößnitzgrundbahn or Lößnitz Valley Railway), which begins here, is also heritage-listed with its rolling stock and the exhibition of historic Saxon narrow-gauge rolling stock that is owned by the Dresden Transport Museum, the Saxon Steam Railway Company and the Vereins Traditionsbahn Radebeul (Radebeul traditional railway association).
