Stadtpark is a station on U4 of the Vienna U-Bahn.[1] It is located in the Landstraße District. It opened in 1978. It is one of the few Otto Wagner buildings on the U4 that has been preserved almost in its original condition. The station, which is open-air and has two side platforma, is located in a cutting and lies parallel to the Wien Canal. Exits lead via a fixed staircase through a station building into Johannesgasse via a staircase or an elevator directly into the part of the Stadtpark located in the 3rd district. The station building hangs over the portal of the Wienfluss designed by Friedrich Ohmann, an opponent of Otto Wagner.[2] Also in the immediate vicinity of the station are the Kursalon Hübner and the Vienna Ice Skating Club as well as the large InterContinental Vienna Hotel
