The original station building opened in 1859 was destroyed in World War II.

Ramps have also been installed to give barrier-free access to the platforms for the disabled.

The platforms have a height of 76 centimetres, which means that there is no access for wheelchair to the Rhine-Ruhr S-Bahn trains (which have an entrance height of 96 centimetres) without assistance; such assistance is available.

It is also served by S-Bahn S 12 services from Köln-Ehrenfeld (Horrem in the peak) to Au (Sieg) and S19 services on weekdays from Düren to Herchen or Au (Sieg).

All passenger trains running through the station are operated by DB Regio Rheinland.
