The Line C station was opened on 9 May 1974, with the first section of Prague Metro, between Sokolovská and Kačerov.[1] It is a single hall station, 194 metres (636 ft) long and only 10 metres (33 ft) deep. Two escalators and a staircase go to the vestibule.

The Line A station was opened on 12 August 1978 as part of the inaugural section of Line A, between Leninova and Náměstí Míru.[1] It is a three-bore station with a shortened, 69-metre (226 ft) middle tunnel. It is 108 metres (354 ft) long and 34 metres (112 ft) deep. The station at Line A was damaged during the 2002 floods and station at Line C was terminus.
