De Cartier (French pronunciation: [də kaʁtje]) is a Charleroi Metro station, located in the center of Marchienne-au-Pont (part of the Charleroi municipality), in fare zone 2. It is an underground station featuring a central platform with escalator and stairs access at both ends.
The interior of the station, designed by architect Noterman, features a large mural depicting Marchienne-au-Pont somewhere between the 16th and 18th century. Reproductions of old, tilted walls are used as decoration on the opposite side of the station.
