Colosseo is a station on Line B of the Rome Metro. It was opened on 10 February 1955 and is located, as its name suggests, in the Monti rione on via del Colosseo near the Colosseum. The station is currently being expanded to be the new northern terminus of Metro's Line C.

Its atrium houses mosaics from the Artemetro Roma Prize. They are by Pietro Dorazio (Italy), Kenneth Noland (United States) and Emil Schumacher (Germany). The main exit is on the lower level, in front of the Colosseum on the Piazza Del Colosseo and to the right of the Arch of Constantine, whilst the other exit is a second story one, located in the middle of the Largo Gaetana Agnesi park above the Piazza.

The station was designed within the first section between the Termini and Laurentina stations to offer a rapid connection between the city center and the newly created EUR district, designated as the site of the 1942 Universal Exhibition, canceled after the outbreak of the World War II. With Italy's entry into the war in 1940 the works were suspended and only resumed in 1948. The stop was inaugurated in conjunction with the first section of the future line B on 9 February 1955, being opened to the public the following day.

Construction work on the Colosseo interchange station with metro line C began in April 2013, with completion of the station expected in 2025. Announced by the Mayor of Rome Roberto Gualtieri, the Transport councilor of Rome Eugenio Patanè and the Minister of Transport Matteo Salvini.
