Mairie de Clichy (in French pronounced as /mɛʁi d(ə) kliʃi/) is a station on Line 13 of the Paris Métro. Located on the line's northwestern branch, it is situated under Rue Matre in the commune of Clichy, Hauts-de-Seine.

History

The station opened on 3 May 1980 upon completion of the extension of Line 13 from Porte de Clichy to Gabriel Péri. Its name refers to the town hall of Clichy. In 2017, it was used by 7,107,063 passengers, making it the network's 42nd busiest station out of 302.[1]

It has the particularity of being very far from the surrounding stations, approximately 1,250 meters separate it from the previous station, Porte de Clichy, and 1,600 meters from the next metro station, Gabriel Péri. This choice was made because, during the studies, nearly 90% of the city's population lived less than 800 meters from the station, and because it was particularly difficult to create a station at the outlet of the Pont de Clichy, in a complex interchange and at the point where the line passes by viaduct.

In 2019, according to RATP estimates, 6,342,058 travelers entered this station, which places it in 51st position among metro stations for its use out of 302.[2]
