Tøyen is a rapid transit station located in the Common Tunnel of Oslo T-bane, Norway. Located in the borough of Gamle Oslo, it is also called "Tøyen-Munchmuseet" due to its proximity to the art museum. It is the last station on the east side shared by all lines; the Grorud Line and Ring Line departs from the other four lines at Tøyen. The station has three platforms, on the south side is a platform for all outbound trains. Across the tracks is another for mostly inbound trains, and on the other side of this platform is a third one for inbound trains from the Grorud Line.

The station was opened on 22 May 1966 as part of the new T-bane lines to the eastern boroughs of Oslo. Above the Tøyen subway station is a shopping centre. Apart from the Munch Museum, there is a park north of the subway station with botanical gardens and paleontological, geological and zoological museums.

There is also a railway station, Tøyen Railway Station, that is located on Gjøvikbanen, though this station is located 750 m from the subway station.
