Berlin U-Bahn U1 Ride - Prinzenstraße to Schlesisches Tor | 1 Escalator | Germany | 15/11/24

Riding the Berlin U-Bahn U1 from Prinzenstraße to Schlesisches. Germany, 14/11/24 Prinzenstraße is a Berlin U-Bahn station on lines U1 and U3. Overview The station is located roughly where the eponymous street crosses the Landwehrkanal in Kreuzberg. The nearby Böcklerpark, a small park with a hall where music events are often held, and the Sommerbad Kreuzberg swimming pool, colloquially called Prinzenbad, are among the most popular venues in central Kreuzberg. The street and subsequently the station were named after Prince William I, the later German Emperor. The station on the first U-Bahn line from Potsdamer Platz to Stralauer Tor was opened on 18 February 1902. Because the station is on a viaduct above the junction of Prinzenstraße and Gitschiner Straße, a street level entrance hall could only be erected on its south side on the grounds of a gas plant, while the stairs to the northern platform had to be included in the opposite residential building. Destroyed in World War II on 28/29 January 1944 and 3 February 1945, the station was rebuilt in the 1950s. It later received new entrance halls in a hotly disputed Postmodern style, in 1984 for the north wing and 1991 for the south wing. Inside, a preserved detail of the old station is found at the northern platform, a small sculpture of a frog with a crown and a ball, alluding to the Frog Prince fairy tale. Schlesisches Tor is a Berlin U-Bahn station on lines U1 and U3. Many Berliners use the affectionate term Schlesi (see Berlin dialect). Overview The station is located in eastern Kreuzberg, near Oberbaumbrücke, in the Bohemian quarter commonly known as SO36 (named after its former postal code). The station is named after one of the former city gates of Berlin, built in the early 18th century; the road that ran through it led southeastward to the province of Silesia. The exceptionally richly designed station opened on 18 February 1902, on the first U-Bahn line erected by the Siemens & Halske company (the Stammstrecke). On 11/12 March 1945, this station was directly hit, and the track area was severely damaged. During the division of Berlin after 13 August 1961, the station was the eastern terminus of the U1, as the final station, Warschauer Straße, was in East Berlin. The link was reopened in 1995. An intermediate station at the Spree river, Stralauer Tor, had been destroyed in 1945 and never reopened. Schlesisches Tor was an atmospheric location in the 1966 espionage film The Quiller Memorandum, starring George Segal and Alec Guinness. #metro #railway #rail #ubahn #ubahnberlin #berlinunderground #subway #transport #railways #publictransport #transit #rapidtransit #train #trains #transportation #bahn #eisenbahn #bahnhof #subwaystation #germany #berlin #deutschland #hochbahn #kreuzberg #ubahnride #publictransportation #europe #züge #zug #u1berlin #u3 #u1 #Prinzenstraße #SchlesischesTor #undergroundrailroad #elevator #aufzug #escalator #escalatorsandelevators #metromark #antonv #metrocheck
