Leopoldplatz U-Bahn Station in Berlin
An underground passageway connects the platforms of Wedding U-Bahn station to its street-level exits on Müllerstraße in Berlin’s Mitte district. The corridor is tiled in light yellow ceramic, part of the BVG’s standardized postwar design used throughout many West Berlin stations rebuilt or renovated in the 1960s and 1970s.
Directional signage guides passengers toward exits, connecting bus routes, and public facilities, while an escalator and stairway lead to the main entrance. The faint graffiti on the walls and motion blur of a passing commuter emphasize the station’s everyday function within Berlin’s public transport network. Wedding station serves both the U6 line and the S-Bahn Ring, forming a key interchange point in the city’s northern transit system.

Berlin Wedding train station
Wittenbergplatz station on Berlin’s U2 line features a distinctive orange-tiled design characteristic of the city’s postwar modernization of U-Bahn interiors. The platform level seen here includes advertising panels with hand-illustrated city scenes, part of a campaign promoting outdoor advertising (“Draussenwerbung”) by Wall GmbH, a longtime transit advertising company in Berlin.
Opened in 1902 as part of the city’s first underground railway, Wittenbergplatz is one of Berlin’s oldest stations and a key junction serving the U1, U2, and U3 lines. The orange tiles were installed during mid-20th-century refurbishments to brighten the subterranean space, contrasting with the original Jugendstil architecture preserved at the main hall above. The modern signage displays U6 connections, while the station’s layout—with three island platforms—continues to serve one of the busiest interchange points in Berlin’s U-Bahn network.

A white station sign reading “Wedding” in black block letters is mounted on an orange, small-rectangle tiled wall inside Wedding station in Berlin, Germany. The station serves the Wedding neighborhood in the Mitte district and functions as an interchange between the U6 U‑Bahn line and the Berlin Ringbahn S‑Bahn. The stark typography and modular tiles reflect the practical design found across much of Berlin’s postwar transit architecture. Operated by BVG for the U‑Bahn and S‑Bahn Berlin GmbH for suburban rail, Wedding is a local hub for commuters moving between the north of the city and central Berlin. No passengers are visible in the frame, emphasizing the graphic clarity of the station’s wayfinding.
