Ruhleben is a Berlin U-Bahn station in the Westend district. It is the western terminus of the U2 line.

The elevated station designed by Alfred Grenander opened on 22 December 1929. Plans to extend the U2 toward Spandau were never carried out and became obsolete after the construction of the U7 in 1984 and the re-opening of the Spandau Suburban Line of the Berlin S-Bahn in 1998.[1]
