Photo story: Hankar metro station

Today we share photos from Brussels metro – welcome to the Hankar station! Have you passed through that metro stop already?  The station is located on line 5 – it’s the first stop before Delta if you are coming from the city centre (Waversesteenweg in Oudergem).

The station was opened in 1976 and is named after Square Baron Robert Hankar. Inside the station you can find a giant mural by Roger Somville, as you can see on the photos below.
