Alt-Tegel is a Berlin U-Bahn station located on the U6. It was constructed by B. Grimmek and opened as "Tegel" station in 1958. In 1992, the station was renamed to Alt-Tegel (Old Tegel). Nearby, indeed nearly 600 meters to walk, is the S-Bahn station Berlin-Tegel, and the renaming perhaps occurred to avoid confusion.^{[2][page needed]}

As it is the end of the U6, it has eight exits, and is an important feeder for people who want to go to the Tegeler See, a recreation site in Berlin.
