Saint-Mandé (pronounced as /fr/) is a station on line 1 of the Paris Métro, situated on the border of the communes of Saint-Mandé and Vincennes, just outside the Boulevard Périphérique.
The station opened as Tourelle on 24 March 1934 as part of the line's extension from Porte de Vincennes to Château de Vincennes, named after the former historial defense towers of the Château de Vincennes. It was the third extension of the métro outside of the administrative limits of the capital, after the extension of line 9 to Pont de Sèvres and that of line 12 to Mairie d'Issy, the latter being inaugurated on the same date.
On 26 April 1937, the station was renamed Saint-Mandé – Tourelle, to emphasise its location in the commune of Saint-Mandé. To avoid any confusion, the existing Saint-Mandé on line 6 was renamed Picpus on 1 March 1937.
In the 1960s, the platform walls were covered with a yellow metal panelling and illuminated golden advertising frames.
As part of the "Un métro + beau" programme by the RATP, the station's corridors were renovated and modernised in 26 July 2002.[1] The station was also renamed Saint-Mandé on the same day, as it remains today. It is one of 3 stations on the métro to bear only the name of the commune they are situated in, the others being Le Kremlin-Bicêtre on line 7 and Saint-Ouen on line 14.
During the automation of line 1, the station had undergone a series of upgrades. The metal panelling installed since the 1960s was removed and the station's platform walls were retiled. Its platforms were closed from 17-18 May 2008 to reenforce and raise the platform level for the installation of platform screen doors,[2] [3] which were installed in May 2010. The line was fully automated in December 2012.[4] [5]
In 2019, the station was used by 6,245,865 passengers, making it the 57th busiest of the Métro network out of 302 stations.[6]
In 2020, the station was used by 3,487,584 passengers amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, making it the 42nd busiest of the Métro network out of 304 stations.[7]
In 2021, the station was used by 3,944,640 passengers, making it the 58th busiest of the Métro network out of 304 stations.[8]
