Metro station in Paris, France

Église de Pantin (eɡliz də pɑ̃tɛ̃) is a station of the Paris Métro, serving line 5. It is named after the nearby Église Saint Germain de Pantin, a local church.

The station opened on 12 October 1942 with the commissioning of the extension of line 5 from Gare du Nord to Eglise de Pantin, servings as its terminus until 25 April 1985 when it was extended to Bobigny–Pablo Picasso. As a result, there are four tracks and a scissors crossover just east of the station; two of which are used to reverse the direction of trains. The station was an important connecting point with the bus lines running on the Route nationale 3 towards the eastern suburbs. A role whose importance declined with the extension of the line towards Bobigny. On the morning of 7 June 1982, after a violent storm the day before, rainwater rushed through the construction site of the extension towards Bobigny, flooding the station. Eighteen trains were rendered unusable, affecting the operation of the line. Emergency equipment had to be transferred from the other lines including Sprague Thomson trains from line 9 were used to mitigate the consequences of the accident. As part of the "Renouveau du métro" programme by the RATP, the station was renovated and modernised on 23 June 2006. In 2024, it will be served by line 3 of the T Zen network, a bus rapid transit system. It was originally slated to open 2018, then postponed to the end of 2022, then again to 2024.
