This subway station is a living statement of Berlin's history.

It eventually became "Eberswalder Strasse", referencing a nearby street, after the wall came down. Another fun fact is that this underground station is actually above the ground - parts of the subway line U2 run overground in the middle of Schönhauser Allee. This part of the line was finished in the 1910s and is running ever since. Today, the intersection Schönhauser Allee/Pappelallee/Danziger Straße/Kastanienallee is one of the busiest intersections of Prenzlauer Berg. It's a short walk to Mauerpark, Kulturbrauerei, lots of restaurants, boutique shops, and you'll get tram connection to Mitte, Pankow, or Friedrichshain. Oh, and East Berlins most famous Currywurst is located right across the station - Konnopke's.
