History

The station was opened on 1 July 1889 under the name of Oetzsch. It has had the following names:

  • until 1905: Oetzsch
  • until 1924: Ötzsch
  • until 1934: Oetzsch
  • since 1934: Markkleeberg
  • After Oetzsch and Markkleeberg had united to form Oetzsch-Markkleeberg in 1915, the station retained the name of Oetzsch. It was only with the formation of the new town of Markkleeberg that it was renamed to Markkleeberg.
