History
The station on the M3 line was opened in 1976 as part of the “Deak Ferenc ter” - “Nagyvarad ter” section . On March 28, 2014, after the launch of the M4 line , Calvin Ter became a transfer station, from which it goes to the same-name station on the M4 line.

Two key highways of the central part of Pest intersect on the square: the longest street of Budapest starts from Calvin Square, leading to the south-east direction Illoy Avenue ( Hungarian Üllői út ) (from Calvin ter station, line M3 goes further along it) and a small half-ring of boulevards ( Hungarian Kiskörút ), on the square of Calvin Vamkhaz Boulevard ( Hungarian Vámház körút ) goes to Museum Boulevard ( Hungarian Múzeum körút ).
