DB builds new Leuna station, due by end of 2027

On 4 May 2026 DB, the state transport minister and Leuna's mayor marked the start of construction of the Leuna stop on Kötzschener Weg with a ceremonial ground-breaking; building work begins on 18 May 2026. It will have two 170-metre side platforms with stairs and two lifts, lies outside the works premises and replaces Leuna-Werke Nord station, which is being demolished. Just under EUR 10 million comes from the Coal Regions Investment Act, the federal government and DB. The date is a placeholder: only the year 2027 is given (LOK Report, 4 May 2026).
