Frøen is a station on the Oslo T-bane in the Vestre Aker borough, it is the first station on Holmenkollbanen after Majorstuen. The name refers to Frøen Gård, a stately estate located near the present location of the t-bane station, of which now only the manor house remains. At Frøen, trains switch from third rail which is used on most of the network, to overhead wire which is used on Holmenkollbanen. Like the other stations on Holmenkollbanen, Frøen has short platforms which only accommodate two-car trains. Located near the point where Holmenkollbanen leaves the other lines, the two platforms are located far apart.

Formerly there was also a Frøen station on Sognsvannsbanen, located near the present station. When Sognsvannsbanen was upgraded to metro standard in 1993, Frøen was one of the stations eliminated from that line.

Frøen is located near the International Museum of Children's Art and the hospital Diakonhjemmet.
