Hansaplatz U-Bahn underground railway station exterior opened 1961 & serves the U9 line, Hansaviertel, Mitte-Berlin The station is located on Hansaplatz and opened on August 28, 1961. This station is the first in a northerly direction after the Zoologischer Garten station and is an unusually long stretch for the U-Bahn (1442 meters). This section of the route runs under part of the Zoological Garden, the Grosse Tiergarten, the Landwehr Canal and the Straße des 17. Juni. The station was designed by Werner Klenke and Bruno Grimmek and has a central platform, the walls are covered in square silver-grey glass tiles and the supports have aluminium cladding. The architects of the northern entrance were Ernst Zinsser and Hansrudolf Plarre and the southern entrance was designed by Werner Düttmann and Siegfried Böhmer. Originally, escalators and stone stairs allowed access to the platform. On January 31, 2017, an elevator was installed at the exit facing the Grips Theater. One escalator had to be removed for this installation, and the course of the dismantled escalator was recreated using colourful mosaic tiles and a stainless steel strip. The construction of the station had commenced in 1955 and was already completed in the summer of 1957 and could be visited as part of the Interbau building exhibition. At that time, an underground construction site shuttle service was provided to the Zoologischer Garten underground station and a VW Beetle pulled the carriages. The station and part of the overall complex buildings of "Interbau 57" & Hansaviertel are under monument protection . A plaque, designed by the artist Katja van Dyck-Taras, was installed at the southern exit in early 2014 to commemorate the 1030 Jewish residents who were deported and murdered during the National Socialist era.
