Chardon-Lagache Location within Paris

Chardon Lagache (French pronunciation: [ʃaʁdɔ̃ laɡaʃ]) is a station on the Paris Métro in the 16th arrondissement, serving line 10 (eastbound only). It is named after the nearby rue Chardon Lagache, which was named after a local retirement home. It is one of the few métro stations to have been named after a woman, after Bagneux–Lucie Aubrac, Barbara, Barbès–Rochechouart, Boucicaut, Louise Michel, Madeleine, and Pierre et Marie Curie.

History

[edit]

The station opened on 30 September 1913 as part of the extension of line 8 from Charles Michels (then known as Beaugrenelle ) to Porte d'Auteuil. On 27 July 1937, the section of line 8 between La Motte-Picquet–Grenelle and Porte d'Auteuil, including Michel-Ange–Molitor was transferred to line 10 during the reconfiguration of lines 8, 10, and the old line 14. However, service between Porte d'Auteuil and Jussieu was not provided until two days later, on July 29, with service initially limited to La Motte-Picquet-Grenelle. Line 10 was also extended from Duroc to La Motte-Picquet–Grenelle on the same day.

As part of the "Renouveau du métro" programme by the RATP, the station's corridors was renovated and modernised on 18 May 2006.^[1]

In 2019, the station was used by 692,665 passengers, making it the 295th busiest of the Métro network out of 302 stations.^[2]

In 2020, the station was used by 331,901 passengers amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, making it the 295th busiest of the Métro network out of 305 stations.^[3]

In 2021, the station was used by 482,053 passengers, making it the 296th busiest of the Métro network out of 305 stations.^[4]
