Fernández de Córdoba is a Panama Metro station on Line 1. The tunnels to the station were completed in August 2012[1] and it was one of the first 11 stations when the metro began operations on 6 April 2014.[2]

The station serves the Vista Hermosa neighbourhood.[1] In April 2016, the network's metro library was opened in the station.[3] In its first year of operations, it was the seventh most used station of the twelve on the network at that time, carrying 12% of the system's users at peak times.[4]
