After the opening on May 24, 1868, the station was initially in Miersdorf at Hankels Ablage and was called Hankels Ablage Bude 21. In the first few years there were only sporadic stops there, and regular stops from June 1, 1874. In 1892 the name was changed from Hankels Ablage Bude 21 to Hankels Ablage Zeuthen. The original platform was south of the forest road.
To better serve the place, the platform was relocated 200 meters north to the northern side of the forest road. The new station, which opened on November 1, 1897, was named Zeuthen.[2]
Due to war damage, the station was closed from April 1945 to June 21, 1945. On April 30, 1951, the first electric S-Bahns ran to the station. Towards the end of the 1960s, the crossing track in the station was put into operation. On February 19, 2001, a new platform access was opened at the southern end of the platform.
In 2018, work began to create barrier-free access to the platform. The pedestrian underpass will be modernized, and three elevators will be installed. In addition, the stairs to the platform will be renewed. The work should be completed in October 2019.[3]
In 1967 the station had four tracks numbered from three to six. Track 3 was 730 meters long, track 4 520 meters, track 5 480 meters and track 6 180 meters. 18 points were available for traffic.[4] The station has a central platform on the S-Bahn tracks. The main access to the platform is on its north side, it can be reached via a pedestrian tunnel from both sides of the track via stairs. At the exit of the stairs there is a small access structure on the platform.
