Hagendeel is a metro station on the Hamburg U-Bahn line U2.
[3] Originally, Hagendeel station was not in the original plans for the Niendorf extension, since the path between the existing terminus, Hagenbecks Tierpark, and Niendorf crossed a sparsely populated area.
However, at the request of the Eimsbüttel district council, the Hagendeel stop, originally planned under the working title "Hinter der Lieth"[1] was added as a supplementary stop.
About a year after the end of tram service, construction of the Niendorf extension began on 7 July 1979.
The cost of construction also influenced how Hagendeel was built, as shown by the fact that the side platforms at the station are narrower than usual.
