It is part of the City S-Bahn line and the Hamburg U-Bahn.
A station was also built near the Landungsbrücken in the slope of the Stintfang hill with 26m NN, nearby Bismarck Monument, designed 1906 by the architects, Johann Emil Schaudt and Walter Puritz.
The station, which is called Landungsbrücken today, was built semi-open, which means that the western end is roofed with a concrete slab and the eastern end is left open.
The striking tower at the entrance and the elevated railway stop, designed by Emil Schaudt, were torn down during construction of the City-S-Bahn.
The new entrance with a copper roof (designed by Hans L. M. Loop and Fritz Trautwein) is connected to the ferry piers by a pedestrian bridge.
