| Opened | 30 October 1966 |
Hagenbecks Tierpark is a metro station on the Hamburg U-Bahn line U2. It is located in the Stellingen district of Hamburg within the borough of Eimsbüttel. It serves the Tierpark Hagenbeck.
In 1961, the Senate of Hamburg decided to build a cross-city route from Stellingen to Billstedt, whose already existing western part was extended from the former Hellkamp stop over the Lutterothstraße station to Hagenbeck's Tierpark, which was originally supposed to be called "Koppelstraße." While the line to Lutterothstraße was opened in 1965, Hagenbecks Tierpark station was not opened until October 30, 1966. The new line replaced the tram line 16.
For almost 19 years, Hagenbecks Tierpark was the terminus of the U2, until the extension to Niendorf Markt in 1985.
Hagenbecks Tierpark station is served by the U2.
