How deep is Vyšehrad

The platforms are at street level or above – the metro does not run underground here. The track is at ground level next to the Congress Centre. To the north the ground drops into the Nusle valley, so the platform end by the bridge is about 12 m above the slope, and right after it line C crosses the valley on the Nusle Bridge.

Elevation: street 240 m a.s.l., track 240 m a.s.l. Depth is measured from the ground above the station to the track.
