Line U8

UBhf_Jannowitzbrücke vor den Umbaumassnahmen

Between Wittenau underground and urban rail and Hermannstraße underground and urban rail stations.

The U8 has 24 stations and is 18 kilometres long. It is the second north/south line, running from Wittenau via Gesundbrunnen to Neukölln.

Kaiser Wilhelm II was impressed by the suspension railway he saw during a visit to Wuppertal in 1900, so AEG drafted plans for both underground and elevated railway systems. A period of tough negotiations with the city of Berlin followed, until the two parties finally agreed on a contract in 1912 and work could begin. Not until the end of the twenties were major parts of the line completed.
