The station is now divided between the heritage-listed station area on the Dresden S-Bahn, the terminal station of the narrow-gauge Radebeul–Radeburg railway (Lößnitzgrundbahn) and its associated facilities, the old goods shed, the narrow-gauge railway museum and the former station building, which is no longer used for rail purposes but is instead operated as the Radebeuler Kultur-Bahnhof (“Radebeul Culture Station”), including an events hall, a library located in the west wing (former waiting room) since 2002 and the adult education college of Meissen district (Volkshochschule im Landkreis Meißen) located in the east wing since 2013. In addition to the events hall in the former station building, the renovated station forecourt is also used as a venue for events. The station area includes various heritage-listed buildings and it also includes a depot and exhibition space for the storage of many heritage-listed, narrow-gauge locomotives and carriages.

Weißeritz
Weißeritz

The Weißeritz (also: Vereinigte Weißeritz in German i.e. United Weißeritz, Bystrica in Sorbian) is a river of Saxony, Germany. It is 13.7 km [8.5 mi] long and a left tiburary of the Elbe.The river is formed by the confluence of the Wild Weißeritz and Red Weißeritz in Freital. The Weißeritz runs through Freital and Dresden. It crosses the deep valley Plauenscher Grund between Freital and Dresden and enters the Dresden Basin. The railway line from Dresden to Nuremberg runs next to the river in his close valley. The river is displaced in an old sidearm in Dresden for flood protection reasons and therefore canalised. In Dresden, it enters the Elbe from the left.Its sorbian name is derived from west Slavic bystrica (clear water). The official name of the river used in documents and hydrographic maps is Vereinigte Weißeritz (United Weißeritz). The highest points of the Weißeritz watershed are at about 800 metres [2,600 ft] elevation. Nevertheless, the Wild Weißeritz is the longest tributary, the watersheds of both Weißeritz rivers are almost equal in area (162.7 km2 [62.8 sq mi] and 161.2 km2 [62.2 sq mi]). The Weißeritz caused severe damage during the 2002 European floods in Dresden and Freital. The river reached Dresden Central Station as well as the Zwinger and flooded some districts of the inner city. Due to the river's high fall from 188 m to 106 m in Dresden some houses were completely destroyed in the torrential flood. The river left its canalised bed near the inner city and went through its old run directly towards the Elbe river.
