It is located under the Rue Jorez/Jorezstraat, close to the Avenue Clemenceau/Clemenceaulaan, in the municipality of Anderlecht, in the western part of Brussels, Belgium.

The metro station opened on 18 June 1993 and was the terminus of line 2 until the opening of an extension to Delacroix on 4 September 2006. On 4 April 2009, the "loop" of line 2 was completed with the junction between Delacroix and Gare de l'Ouest/Weststation. Following the reorganisation of the Brussels Metro on that occasion, it now lies on the joint section of lines 2 and 6.[1][2]
