Stortinget is an underground rapid transit station on the Oslo T-bane, Norway, in the shared Common Tunnel. Located next to, and taking its name from the Norwegian Parliament, Stortinget, is serves as the central station of the network, serving the city center of Oslo. It is located between Nationaltheatret and Jernbanetorget.

Stortinget has four platforms. Most regular trains, which travel through the city centre use the main platforms which were formerly used only for trains on the western side of the network. At each side is a platform for trains from the east terminating at Stortinget. Before the subway lines were joined together these platforms were in heavy use, but now they are used only for a small number of extra trains. A loop which passes underneath the main track connects the two side platforms, allowing the trains to turn without having to reverse direction.

Stortinget was opened in 1977 under the name Sentrum ("Center" or downtown) as the terminus for the eastern T-bane lines. Water leakages in the station forced its closure in 1983 for repairs. It was reopened in 1987, now as the terminus for the western lines as well. In 1993 the first trains which went through Stortinget started operating with the upgraded Sognsvann Line being connected with the Lambertseter Line.
