Schottentor is a station on Template:VUB lines of the Vienna U-Bahn.[1] It is located in the Innere Stadt District, below Maria-Theresien-Straße. It opened in 1980.

The station is an interchange node between U2 and several tramway lines, many of which terminate here.

The name of the station derives from the Schottentor, a former city gate in the Vienna city wall, which was demolished in 1860.
