De Brouckère metro station

De Brouckère is a rapid transit station located under the Place de Brouckère/De Brouckèreplein in central Brussels, Belgium. It consists of both a metro station and a premetro station. The station takes its name from that aboveground square, itself named after the former mayor of the City of Brussels, Charles de Brouckère.

The station opened on 17 December 1969 as a premetro station on the tram line between De Brouckère and Schuman. This station was upgraded to full metro status on 20 September 1976, serving former east–west line 1. Since 4 October 1976, the station has also accommodated North–South Axis premetro services at separate platforms. Then, following the reorganisation of the Brussels Metro on 4 April 2009, it is served by lines 1, 3, 4 and 5 Line 3 was disbanded in 2024 and replaced by the new line 10.
