The station, which was built to plans by the architects Hart & Lesser, was opened on 1 November 1904 under the name of Zehlendorf-Beerenstraße.

An interesting detail in a decorative manner is an elaborate emblem in wrought iron with the letters "KPEV" on the railway bridge.

In March 1934, the bridge was one of the first in Germany to be examined with the aid of X-rays and breaks were discovered in the welds under the paint.

The bridge railing, including its decorative emblem, was reconstructed as part of the restoration of the entire area to plans by the architects Stuhlemmer for the 750th anniversary of Berlin in 1987.

On 18 September 1980, the station was closed as a result of a strike by the workers of Deutsche Reichsbahn who lived in West Berlin.
