Teremky (Ukrainian: Теремки) is a station on the Kiev Metro's Kurenivsko-Chervonoarmiyska Line opened on 6 November 2013.[1][2] It is the southern end of the line,[3] located just after the Ipodrom station.[4] The station is named after the Teremky neighborhood of Kiev.

At the opening of the Ipodrom station on 25 October 2012 (then) Ukrainian Prime Minister Mykola Azarov had stated that the Teremky station "would soon open".[4] According to planning the station should have opened on 24 August 2013, Independence Day of Ukraine.[3] But instead it was opened on 6 November 2013, on that day was celebrated Day of Kyiv's liberation from Nazi invaders.[2]
