St. Pauls tube station
St Paul's is a London Underground station in the City of London, near St Paul's Cathedral's north east corner. Visitors should note that the main entrance to the Cathedral is on the west side, a few minutes' walk from the station itself. The station is on the Central Line, between Bank and Chancery Lane, and is in zone 1.
The station should not be confused with City Thameslink station which opened in 1990 as "St Paul's Thameslink" but is some distance from the tube station. That station was soon renamed "City Thameslink" to avoid confusion for tourists but for years afterwards many maps and guidebooks in circulation still carried the original name.
It opened on July 30, 1900, as Post Office. It was renamed on February 1, 1937.
