Green Park

London, SWA 1AA

Opened in 1906, Dover Street station was built to serve the Great Northern, Piccadilly and Brompton Railway – the Piccadilly line as we know it today. Located on the edge of Mayfair and in the vicinity of three of London’s Royal Parks, it became one of the busiest stations on the line and was quickly renamed to its current name, ‘Green Park’ in 1933.
This guided tour takes you into Dover Street, a station hidden within a station. You’ll discover Dover Street’s fascinating story - complete with tales of wartime intrigue - former passageways and lift landings that have been closed to passengers for decades, and strikingly vast ventilation shafts and corridors.
