Samariterstraße (Metro station) (Berlin) | underground facility

Germany / Berlin / Berlin / Frankfurter Allee
 metro station, underground facility
Samariterstraße is a Berlin U-Bahn station located on the U5.
As of 2011, construction of an elevator has commenced in order to make the station grade-free accessible.
Built in 1930 by A. Grenander, it was tiled green and closed during a few months in 1945. During the GDR the station was covered with pictures of SED propaganda that was removed in 1990. From 1993 there were pictures from adolescents hanging on the walls, that were against violence. The background of this was that a 23-old person was killed in this station by people from the right wing scene.
Today, however, advertisements are on the walls of the station.
