Saint-Denis–Porte De Paris (Paris Métro)
Saint-Denis–Porte de Paris () is a station on Line 13 of the Paris Métro in the commune of Saint-Denis. History The station opened on 26 May 1976 when the line was extended from Carrefour Pleyel to Basilique de Saint-Denis. It was later renovated for the opening of the Stade de France to enable it to handle large flows of passengers.

The paper billboards were covered with black posters, while the plastic film placed on the walls remained in place until the end of the promotion campaign. Since the end of 2012, its platforms have been fitted ...
