Thissio (Greek: Σταθμός Θησείου Stathmos Thiseiou) is an Athens Metro Line 1 station, located in Thiseio at 8.603 km (5.346 mi) from Piraeus.[1] It is located in Athens and took its name from the nearby Temple of Hephaestus which is famous as Thiseio. The station was first opened on February 27, 1869, and was renovated in 2004. It has two platforms.

Thissio station is the first railway station in the city of Athens, other than the Thissio–Piraeus of today's line 1 of Athens metro and the first railway line other than the range of the Greek government. The station was the furthermost on May 17, 1895, at the time the line ended to Omonoia. Today, its hours routed between Thissio and Ano Patisia.
