Stuyvenbergh is a Brussels Metro station on the northern branch of line 6. It is located under the intersection of the Avenue Houba De Strooper/Houba De Strooperlaan, the Avenue Émile Bockstael/Émile Bockstaellaan and the Avenue De Smet De Naeyer/De Smet De Naeyerlaan, in Laeken, in the north-west of the City of Brussels, Belgium. The station takes its name from the Château of Stuyvenberg, which is just to the east, in Laeken Park.
