The Brudermühlstraße underground station is a station on the Munich underground in the Sendling district .

It was opened on October 28, 1989 and is partly under the road tunnel of the same name, partly under the intersection of Thalkirchner Strasse and Brudermühlstrasse . The station was built together with the Brudermühl tunnel of the Middle Ring above it, which is why it is relatively deep in the groundwater.

The back track walls consist of blue tiles, with a work of art made of sheet metal attached to track 1. The pillars are clad with white tiles and have metal strips at the corners. The ceiling above the platform, made of white sheet metal panels, is shaped like a canopy . The ceiling over the tracks is made of black painted concrete, which makes it difficult to see. The platform, designed with the Isar pebble motif, has a curved mosaic roughly in the middle and is illuminated by two bands of light that are attached to the edge of the canopy. In the middle of the platform, an elevator and escalators lead to a barrier floor and on to Thalkirchner Straße. At the southern end, escalators and a fixed staircase lead to another barrier floor, in which a millstone is supposed to remind of the tradition as a mill location. From the southern mezzanine floor you can reach Brudermühlstrasse.

The artistic design inside the station was carried out by the Munich artist Cozy Pièro . The Munich subway department was responsible for the planning together with the Munich architects Brückner & Partner, which were also responsible for the Lehel and Forstenrieder Allee subway stations, which opened around the same time .

As part of the urban project Kunst am Mittlerer Ring , which was intended to define the Mittlerer Ring on the one hand "in its entirety" and on the other hand as a "sequence of sections", the sculptor Leo Kornbrust erected a writing stele on the surface of the underground station. The black stele stands on Resi-Huber-Platz at the junction of Brudermühlstrasse / Thalkirchner Strasse ( Lage ) and is inscribed with texts by Kornbrust's wife, the writer and poet Felicitas Frischmuth . The ventilation shafts of the subway got eye-catching grille covers designed by the architect Paolo Nestler . Both projects were financed as part of the Kunst-am-Bau project with funds from the subway construction.
