Piges is a Charleroi Metro station, located in Dampremy (part of the Charleroi municipality), in fare zone 1. The station is built on a viaduct and is accessed through escalators and stairs from a street entrance located on Chaussée de Bruxelles (Brussels Road).

Although the station is built on a viaduct, tracks enter a tunnel at its western end, as they pass under a spoil tip (Terril des Piges) toward Dampremy.

A tram line to Gosselies starts at the station.

Nearby points of interest[]

Station surroundings are sparsely populated (lower part of the Chaussée de Bruxelles) and do not feature important points of interest, which explains the low passenger flow through the station.

Transfers[]

TEC Charleroi bus lines 41, 85 and Midi-Docherie.
