{{Short description|Station of the Berlin U-Bahn}}
'''Louis-Lewin-Straße''' is a surface-level Berlin U-Bahn station in the German capital city of [[Berlin]]. It is part of the  [[Berlin U-Bahn]]; the [[List of Berlin U-Bahn stations|station]] is located on the {{lnl|Berlin U-Bahn|U5}} line.

The station opened in July 1989, just a few months before the fall of the [[Berlin Wall]]. The station was formerly located in [[Hönow]], and the surrounding area was annexed by Berlin during [[German reunification]] on 3 October 1990.

The eastern extension of (what is now) line U5 was one of the last major construction projects of the former [[German Democratic Republic]].

It was originally called Hönow-West in planning stages. In 1989 up to 1991 the name of the station was Paul-Verner-Strasse; however, as P. Verner was an SED politician the name was changed after the reunification of Germany to the toxicologist and professor at the Humboldt University Lewin (1850–1929).
