Salto del Agua is a metro (subway) station on the Mexico City Metro. It is located in the Cuauhtémoc borough in the center of Mexico City. Since 9 July 2022,[2] the Line 1 station has remained closed modernization work on the tunnel and the line's technical equipment.[3] The Line 1 station was reopened in September 13, 2024.[4]

Name and iconography

Its logo represents the Salto del Agua fountain. This fountain is at the end of the old

historic center, Colonia Doctores and Colonia Obrera. Contrary to popular belief, this fountain is not the original but rather a reproduction. The original fountain had deteriorated significantly, so architect Guillermo Ruiz was tasked with its reproduction, using the original engraved stone epigraphs as a model. What is left of the original fountain is in the National Museum of the Viceregal Period in Tepotzotlán.[5]

General information

Salto del Agua is a transfer station and contains a cultural display. It also has two kinds of architecture, one from Line 1 of the Metro, and the other, more modern style, of Line 8. Line 8 exits connect with

vendedores ambulantes
or "ambulantaje".

Metro Salto del Agua also transfers to trolleybus line "A", which runs the full length of Eje Central Lázaro Cárdenas and more, from

Metro Tasqueña
– the city's main north and south intercity bus stations.

Inside the station is a mural entitled The Three Workers by artist Jason Schell.
