The following list of metro systems in Europe is ordered alphabetically by country and city.
Although the term metro (or métro, metró, metrosu, metropoliteni, or metropolitano / metropolitana in Southern Europe, or mietrapaliten / metropoliten in Eastern Europe) is widespread in Europe, there are also other names for rapid transit systems, such as subway, underground, tube, T-bane, tunnelbana or U-Bahn.
The list contains systems that can be defined as rapid transit with a completely segregated alignment, as well as light rail systems with a considerable section with a completely segregated alignment.
The Tyrolian village of Serfaus also has a short metro, the U-Bahn Serfaus, which uses cushions instead of rails.
