The bridge is named after Resistance fighter Julius Leber. It was formerly named Sedanbrücke, after the Prusso-German victory in the Battle of Sedan in the Prusso-German war against France in 1870/71. The bridge connects the two ends of Kolonnenstraße.
The station has two platforms, of which only the inner platform edges are being used, serving the Wannseebahn line of the Berlin S-Bahn running between them.
