Pannenhuis (French pronunciation: [panənœjs]; Dutch pronunciation: [ˈpɑnə(n)ˌɦœys]) is a Brussels Metro station on the northern branch of line 6. It is located in Laeken, in the north-west of the City of Brussels, Belgium. The station takes its name from the street Rue du Pannenhuys/Pannenhuisstraat (lit. 'Roof Tile House Street'), which is just to the west, in the municipality of Jette.

The metro station opened on 6 October 1982 as part of the Beekkant–Bockstael extension of former line 1A. Then, following the reorganisation of the Brussels Metro on 4 April 2009, it is served by line 6.

Footnotes

  1. "Pannenhuis" comes from Dutch, so its French pronunciation does not (exactly) match the French orthography. See also Koekelberg and Schaerbeek.
  2. The street name "Pannenhuis" means "roof tile house" in Dutch and is named after a pub with a tiled roof.
