Constantin Brâncoveanu is a metro station in Bucharest. It is named after Constantin Brâncoveanu, a Wallachian prince (1654–1714).

It is located at the junction of the Olteniței road (Șoseaua Olteniței) and the Constantin Brâncoveanu boulevard (Bd. Constantin Brâncoveanu), right next to the southern entrance into Tineretului Park, providing easy access to the Sala Polivalentă (Polivalenta Hall, a frequent host to sport events and concerts). Here you can find "Oraselul copiilor"(City of the kids) the greatest amusement park in Romania.

Since the fall of communism the platform has been dominated by a statue of Constantin Brâncoveanu and his sons, replacing the old statue of Ion Popescu-Puturi, a communist leader.
