The Bauernfeindstrasse subway station (abbreviation: BA ) was opened on March 1, 1972 as the seventh subway station of the Nuremberg subway . It is 1,509 meters from Hasenbuck underground station and 506 meters from Messe underground station . It was the terminus for the U1 line until June 18, 1974. Up to January 28, 1978 it was possible to change to the tram here. It is used by around 5,400 passengers every day.

Bauernfeindstrasse is named after Karl Maximilian von Bauernfeind , former professor at the Royal Polytechnic School in Munich (now the Technical University of Munich ).

Location and infrastructure

Map of the subway station. Bauernfeindstrasse

The station is located in the Nuremberg district of Rangierbahnhof-Siedlung and extends above ground in a northwest-southeast orientation from Bauernfeindstrasse in a cut to the southeast. Sights in the vicinity of the station are the railroad station shunting yard, the Silbersee and the Volkspark Dutzendteich .

The only staircase leads from the northern platform head to Bauernfeindstrasse. An elevator leads from the north head of the station to the surface. An x-shaped double track change connects to the station in the direction of Langwasser.

From 1964 to 1970, the tram's turning loop was located northwest of the cut in the area where the underground station is located today, on the other side of Bauernfeindstrasse; there is now a P&R parking lot. A track had already been laid there for the continuation of the tram to Langwasser, which was never realized. Since two bridge structures south of the underground station were already completed when a tram to Langwasser was still planned, there is a very tight curve between the Messe and Bauernfeindstrasse stations, which is still laid out according to tram parameters. In the long term, it is planned to replace this route with a straight line.

Until 1978, the tram also ran at the final stop at Bauernfeindstrasse.

Building and architecture

The construction work for the 126 m long station building began on March 20, 1967 with the triggering of the first ramming blow by the then Mayor Urschlechter . The elevator was retrofitted in 1987 after the downward moving escalator was removed.

The platform roof is supported by eight concrete pillars.
