Brin is a Genoa Metro station. It is situated along Via Benedetto Brin in the neighbourhood of Certosa in Rivarolo Ligure, a suburban area in the north-western outskirts of Genoa, Italy. The station, currently the terminus of the line, is located just west of the outlet of the tunnel from Dinegro station.[1] It is built on a viaduct, designed to extend the line to the north, towards a new station. It is the only station above ground.

Designed by architect Renzo Piano, the station's official opening took place on June 13, 1990,[1] and along with Dinegro became one of the first operational stations.
