The station is located in the extreme south of Corso di Porta Romana, in Piazza Medaglie d'Oro. According to the first projects, the station was to be called Medaglie d'Oro after the homonymous square.

The station, like all others of Line 3, is underground, and it is the first one in the southern track to be built in a single barrel, marking the exit from the city center.

The station is near Bocconi University.
