The entire route was built due to the efforts of businessman Johannes Janus, who ran the Hotel Holsteinische Schweiz after which the station was named.Platform 1 had a roof which was dismantled again in 1896 in order to be re-erected at Plön's prince's station . Since 1910 this roof has graced the home platform at Plön station.Regular passenger and goods services on the Malente-Gremsmühlen-Lütjenburg line, and therefore at Holsteinische Schweiz station were closed in 2000. Currently part of the line has been converted to 600 mm gauge and is back in service as a heritage railway. From Easter 2009 regular services have returned to Holsteinische Schweiz station. The station is serviced by the 600 mm narrow-gauge line called the Hein Schüttelborg.
