Victoria is a London Underground station in Victoria, London, sitting adjacent to the mainline station. It is served by three lines: Circle, District and Victoria. 3rd busiest station on the Underground, and made up of two separate component parts occupying different levels on the tube network, and built over a century apart from each other. The earlier section serves the Circle and District lines, while the later one serves the Victoria line. There are two individual ticket halls, and a link between them.
The first tube station was constructed in 1868 by the District Railway, extended to serve the Outer Circle and Middle Circle services during the 19th century. The Victoria line portion of the station was proposed in the 1940s, opening in 1969. As a result of increased traffic, the station was extensively rebuilt in the early 21st century to satisfy passenger demands.
