The station building has been closed and converted into a hotel for cyclists and a bicycle parking facility. Since 2009, Deutsche Post has erected a Packstation here. The ticket office has been replaced by a ticket machine. Previously there was a freight yard, part of which is now used for supermarket parking and the rest for station parking.
