Berlin-Westend station

Berlin-Westend station features a main entrance building with distinct architectural elements, including symmetrical facades and classical ornamental details from the late 19th century.

The station, designed by architect Heinrich Joseph Kayser, opened in 1877 as Charlottenburg-Westend and underwent substantial expansion works in 1884 to accommodate increasing rail traffic.

The station building maintains its status as an architectural heritage monument, representing the Renaissance Revival style prevalent during German railway infrastructure development.

Platform C remains operational for S-Bahn lines S41, S42, and S46, with elevator access from both northern and southern entrances of Spandauer-Damm-Brücke.

After serving as an exhibition space for the Freundeskreis der Universität der Künste, sections of the station building transformed into office spaces following 2001.
