The Candidplatz underground station is a station on the U1 line of the Munich Underground . It is located in the Untergiesing district under Pilgersheimer Strasse and extends in a southerly direction to under the Candidbrücke of the Mittlerer Ring . At the underground station there is a connection to the metro bus lines 52 and 54 as well as the express bus lines X30 and X98.
The station was opened on November 8, 1997. The square above is named after the painter and sculptor Pieter de Witte, known as Peter Candid , who worked in and around Munich in the 16th century.
The platform area is kept in rainbow colors, which merge and dissolve the dominating structural longitudinal lines. Paul Kramer and Sabine Koschier (subway department) carried out the expansion concept and the design of the color scheme, while the implementation planning was carried out by Egon Konrad, Munich.
