Aderklaaer Straße

The Aderklaaer Straße subway station in Floridsdorf is an above-ground stop on the U1 line, which opened in 2006. It runs parallel to Holzmanngasse and is served by a center platform, with elevators and stairs leading down to the surrounding streets. The station takes its name from the street of the same name, which was named in 1910 after the Lower Austrian village of Aderklaa. Originally threatened with closure because of low ridership, the surrounding area developed quickly. Today the large Citygate residential and shopping district, with its high-rises, a park, and a park-and-ride facility, defines the scene, making the station an important transit hub in Vienna's 21st district.
