Berlin Bornholmer Straße station

The station features a pentagonal superstructure with a small tower and two island platforms serving multiple railway lines crossing through northern Berlin.

The station operated until August 1961 when the Berlin Wall construction transformed it into a ghost station, with trains passing without stopping.

Richard Brademann designed this station in 1935, incorporating elements of German railway architecture that earned it protection as a heritage monument.

The station connects to tram line M13 and bus line 50, offering direct access to Gesundbrunnen, Schönhauser Allee, Pankow, Frohnau, and Oranienburg.

On November 9, 1989, the nearby Bösebrücke border crossing became one of the first points where East Germans crossed into West Berlin.
