Michel-Ange–Molitor station

Metro station in Paris, France

Michel Ange–Molitor (mikɛlɑ̃ʒ mɔlitɔʁ) is a station of the Paris Métro in the 16th arrondissement, serving as an interchange between Line 9 and Line 10 (eastbound only). It is named after the nearby rue Michel Ange, which was in turn named after Michelangelo (the nearby Michel Ange—Auteuil station was also named after him) as well as the nearby rue Molitor, which was named after Count Gabriel Jean Joseph Molitor (1770–1849), a Marshal of France.

The station opened on 30 September 1913 when Line 8 was extended from Charles Michels (then called Beaugrenelle) to Porte d'Auteuil. Line 9's platforms opened on 8 November 1922 with the opening of the initial section of the line from Trocadéro to Exelmans. 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. As part of the "Renouveau du métro" programme by the RATP, the station's corridors was renovated and modernised on 27 July 2010. In 2019, the station was used by 2,247,014 passengers, making it the 231st busiest of the Métro network out of 302 stations. In 2020, the station was used by 1,180,095 passengers amidst the COVID 19 pandemic, making it the 222nd busiest of the Métro network out of 305 stations. In 2021, the station was used by 1,420,552 passengers, making it the 241st busiest of the Métro network out of 305 stations.

The station has a single access at rue Molitor and has a rare Val d'Osne totem.

Line 9's station have a standard configuration with 2 tracks surrounded by 2 side platforms whereas line 10's station has a uncommon configuration. It has two tracks flanking a single island platform. Only the southern track is used for regular commercial use for traffic towards Chardon Lagache. The northern track, however, is only used for occasional trains coming from Porte d'Auteuil (usually the first train in the mornings as well as during events at the nearby Parc des Princes).

The station is also served by line 62 (only in the direction of Porte de France) of the RATP bus network.
