Bahnstrecke Neustrelitz–Warnemünde
Today's station was opened in 1886 by the "Deutsch-Nordische-Lloyd" (German-Nordic-Lloyd) Railway Company as the "Lloyd-Bahnhof" (“station of the Lloyd Railway”). The company operated the Lloyd Railway on the Neustrelitz–Rostock–Warnemünde route and the subsequent mail steamer connection to Nykøbing Falster. In 1894, the Lloyd Railway was acquired by the Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin and incorporated in the Grand Duchy of Mecklenburg Friedrich-Franz Railway ("Großherzoglich Mecklenburgische Friedrich-Franz-Eisenbahn", MFFE), which already owned a large station in Rostock. The parallel operation of passenger and freight traffic proved to be inefficient.
