バーデン大公国邦有鉄道
The town of Rastatt received its first rail connection on 6 May 1844, when the Grand Duchy of Baden State Railway () opened the Karlsruhe–Rastatt section of the Rhine Valley Railway. Since at that time Rastatt was a fortress of the German Confederation and was protected by ramparts and a ditch, the line ran to the east of the town at first. The first Rastatt station was therefore situated in what is now an industrial district.
