The Kaiserin-Augusta-Strasse U-Bahn underground railway station interior on U6 line in & white tiled wall & portrait of Queen


The Kaiserin-Augusta-Straße underground station was built as part of the southern extension of the Tempelhofer branch of the North-South Railway to Alt-Mariendorf . The planning dated back to the Weimar Republic but construction of this section of the line only began in 1961. It was designed by Rainer G. Rümmler who based the design on Bruno Grimmek's design for the Alt-Tempelhof underground station, The central platform was 110m long and 7m wide with two entrances - Albrechtstrasse in the north and the eponymous Kaiserin-Augusta-Strasse in the south. At this time the walls behind the tracks were covered with small, dark green ceramic tiles, and the supporting columns were tiled in white. A renovation of the station was completed in 2017. The station now has a blue and white colour-scheme decorated with monochrome portraits
