The station is located on the territory of the municipality of Berga. It lies on the
Halle–Hann. Münden railway, which was opened by the Magdeburg-Leipzig Railway Company (
Magdeburg-Leipziger Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft) in 1866. However, the station was not opened until 1877. From 1890 to 2011, it was the starting point for a
branch line to Stolberg (Harz) and from 1916 to 1966 also for the
Kyffhäuser Light Railway via Kelbra, Sittendorf,
Tilleda and
Hackpfüffel to
Artern. A fully occupied
D-Zug (express train) on the line between Berga-Kelbra and Aumühle was attacked by American fighter-bombers on 21 February 1945. After they had blown up the locomotive’s steam boiler, they fired into the carriages. 40 people were killed immediately. It is planned to renew the platforms and to build new platform accesses by 2018 at an estimated cost of €700,000. == Rail services==
