Porte de Hal (French) or Hallepoort (Dutch) is a double Brussels metro and premetro (underground tram) station; one station on the southern segment of metro lines 2 and 6 and one premetro station on the North–South Axis. The metro station opened on 2 October 1988 and the premetro station opened on 3 December 1993 (the metro operates one level below the premetro lines).

The station is located in the municipality of Saint-Gilles, south of the City of Brussels (Belgium), under the small ring and next to the 14th-century Halle Gate, after which it is named. It is one metro stop away or about 10 minutes' walk from Brussels-South railway station.

The station contains several artworks by François Schuiten of metro trains and futuristic cityscapes, including some views of the medieval Halle Gate amongst skyscrapers.
