Pankstraße (Berlin U-Bahn)

Pankstraße is a Berlin U-Bahn station located on the U8.

It was opened on 5 October 1977 (Rümmler) with the line's extension from Gesundbrunnen to Osloer Straße.

The station's name derives from its location: It sits under the intersection of Pankstraße and Badstraße.

The German orthographic rules call for the spelling "Pankstraße", but the signs inside the station spell "Pankstrasse", acceptable if in capital letters, but not in lower case as used.

It is prepared and partially stocked to be used as an fallout shelter.
