Gribaumont is a Brussels Metro station on line 1 (prior to 4 April 2009 the eastern branch of line 1B). It is located in the municipality of Woluwe-Saint-Lambert/Sint-Lambrechts-Woluwe, in the eastern part of Brussels, Belgium, and opened on 20 January 1976. It is located under the French: Avenue de Broqueville|italic=no/Dutch; Flemish: De Broquevillelaan|italic=no and takes its name from the nearby French: Avenue Louis Gribaumont|italic=no/Dutch; Flemish: Louis Gribaumontlaan|italic=no, named after the landowner who helped develop the area in the 1900s.[1]
In 2008, the original Pavimento Pirelli black rubber floor tiles on the platforms were removed. They were replaced with new biscuit-coloured terrazzo tiles, with darker grey tiles nearest to the walls. The platform area overhead lighting was also replaced in late 2008.
