History

Savignyplatz station about 1900

The station was built in 1895/1896^[4] on typical arches of the Berlin Stadtbahn in the middle of the then new residential area around Savigny Platz (named after the jurist Friedrich Carl von Savigny) between the stations of Zoologischer Garten (Zoo) and Charlottenburg. The opening took place on 1 August 1896.^[5]

In 1934, the station’s two stairwells with their nameplates and the entrance rooms were modernised. At the same time the railway arches in this area were given a dark brick facade.
