## History

The Nord-Süd-Bahn built by the city of Berlin went into operation on 30 January 1923 between Hallesches Tor and Stettiner Bahnhof (today Naturkundemuseum) – the first Großprofil line in the network. In the 1950s and 1960s the line was extended at both ends: on 3 May 1956 to Kurt-Schumacher-Platz, on 31 May 1958 to Alt-Tegel and on 28 February 1966 to Alt-Mariendorf. During the division of Berlin, the line passed through five closed "ghost stations" in the eastern sector, at which no stops were made.
