History

Work on the station started in 1875 and it was opened together with most other Berlin Stadtbahn stations on 7 February 1882. Today, it is one of the two Stadtbahn stations still partly in its original state (the other bring Hackescher Markt). The station has been a listed building since 1987. It was damaged during the Second World War and patched up. It was faithfully restored in 1987 for the 750th anniversary of Berlin. In 1995, the station was reopened along with the entire Stadtbahn viaduct and its modernisation was completed on 11 November 1997.^[1]

Environment

The Berlin Victory Column, river Spree, Tiergarten Park and Bellevue Palace may be reached in the nearby vicinity.
