The Am Schöpfwerk station of the Vienna subway on the U6 line in Vienna's 12th district of Meidling was built on an elevated position.

In the architecture of all newly built stations of the U6 south branch, a new deformation technology of trapezoidal aluminum sheet (the pull-in process ) was used, which allowed the construction of arches of different shapes. The combination with blue glazed concrete and glass give the station a signal effect. The lift towers rounded at the top are particularly striking. the construction comes from Johann Georg Gsteu .

It is located at the Am Schöpfwerk residential complex , north of the Altmannsdorfer branch of the Vienna Südosttangente and offers a transfer option to bus line 16A. At night, the station is served by the N66 of the Vienna NightLine , on weekends and public holidays the underground runs continuously. The station was opened on April 15, 1995 as part of the extension of the U6 to Siebenhirten . The express tram line 64 Viennese tram had already had a stop here in a level location.
