Grozăvești was inaugurated on 19 November 1979 as part of the first line of the Bucharest Metro, between Semănătoarea and Timpuri Noi, and is currently servicing the M1 metro line.[1]

The station was built employing a two-platform system, with the tracks in the center, and with exits at each end of the station, leading to a higher underground platform used as a vestibule. The station's theme colour is dark green, with walls covered in light and dark green mosaic pieces arranged at random as to not form any patterns.
