San Alberto Hurtado, former Pila del Ganso is a station on the Santiago Metro in Santiago, Chile. It is underground, between the stations Ecuador and Universidad de Santiago on the same line. It is located on the Avenida Libertador General Bernardo O'Higgins with Toro Mazotte street, in the commune of Estación Central.

This station was opened under the name Pila del Ganso, due to an ornamental fountain provided for in the Alameda central floe up to Toro Mazotte street, just below current station. In 2005, because of recent canonization of Alberto Hurtado, the directory of Metro S.A. approved changing the name of the station, whose sanctuary and Hogar de Cristo headquarters is located close to the station.
