Desined by Lucien Kroll as a total artwork, it takes its name from its location on the Place de l'Alma, the university campus' main square.
The original eastern terminus of the former line 1B was at Tomberg, prior to the opening of the extension to Alma. Alma station then served as the terminus until 1988, when the line was further extended to Stockel/Stokkel.
