Legend
STB to Gümmenen Old station Bösingenstrasse Current station STB to Flamatt

Prior to 2021, the station building was located on the Bahnhofstrasse, to the north of the Bösingenstrasse. As part of a major reconstruction project between 2019 and 2021 a new station was built 250 metres (820 ft) to the southeast, on the other side of the Bösingenstrasse, and in the direction of Neuenegg. The new station has a single 330-metre (1,080 ft)-long side platform. There is parking space for 243 bicycles, both in front of the station and on the old right-of-way between the platform and the Bösingenstrasse. A gravel path between the station and the river Sense runs from Laupen to Neuenegg.[5][6] The new station opened, with the rest of the line, in April 2021.[7]
