History

The station was opened on 2 April 1903 when the line was extended from Bagnolet (now called Alexandre Dumas) to Nation. It is named after the Rue d'Avron, which is named after a small nearby plateau that served an important role in the defence of Paris during the Siege of Paris in the Franco-Prussian War.

It was the location of the Barrière de Montreuil, a gate built for the collection of taxation as part of the Wall of the Farmers-General; the gate was built between 1784 and 1788 and demolished in the nineteenth century.[1][2][3]

As part of the RATP Renouveau du métro renovation program, the entire station was renovated by 9 December 2005.[4]

On 16 July 2018, part of the nameplates of the station were temporarily replaced to celebrate the victory of the French football team at the 2018 FIFA World Cup, as in five other stations.[5] Avron is humorously renamed Nous Avron gagné as a play on words.

In 2019, 1,871,024 travelers entered this station which places it in 256th position for metro stations for its attendance out of 302.[6]
