Háje (in Czech pronounced as /ˈɦaːjɛ/) is a Prague Metro station and the terminus of Line C. It is named after a local neighborhood, whose name in English literally means groves. Háje station, along with the two stations preceding it, serve Jižní Město, the largest housing estate in the Czech Republic.

The station was opened on 7 November 1980 as the southern terminus of the extension from Kačerov[1] and was formerly known as Kosmonautů (meaning [station of] the cosmonauts) until 1990.
