Pankrác (Czech pronunciation: [ˈpaŋkraːts]) is a Prague Metro station on Line C, located in the neighbourhood of Pankrác (part of Nusle) in Prague 4. The station was formerly known as Mládežnická. It was opened on 9 May 1974 with the first section of Prague Metro, between Sokolovská and Kačerov.[1] The station serves the Arkády Pankrác shopping centre.

A tram extension was constructed to the station in 2021.[2] The station was closed on January 6, 2025 for a year for renovations in connection with the construction of Line D.[3] After the opening of Line D, Pankrác will become a transfer station.
