Station-Berlin

The Station – the former postal freight depot at Gleisdreieck – in the heart of Berlin – sits between the Deutsches Technikmuseum and the Neue Nationalgalerie. The station’s name means ‘railway triangle’ in English and marks the spot of an earlier major train hub (today only an intersection, albeit without a connection, with the S-Bahn remains) which now is part of the Deutsches Technikmuseum (German Museum of Technology).

Gleisdreieck is the westernmost station in Kreuzberg for both lines and was used for a few years as a M-Bahn station. In 1908 there was a major accident at the station which killed 18 people.
