Michel-Ange–Auteuil (French pronunciation: [mikɛlɑ̃ʒ otœj]) is a station of the Paris Métro in the 16th arrondissement, serving as an interchange between line 9 and line 10 (westbound only). It is named after the nearby rue Michel-Ange, which was in turn named after Michelangelo (the nearby Michel-Ange—Molitor station was also named after him) as well as the nearby rue Auteuil, which was named after the former village of Auteuil (it used to be its main street). The Embassy of the Central African Republic is located nearby.

History

The station opened on 30 September 1913 when line 8 was extended from Beaugrenelle (now Charles Michels) 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–Auteuil 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 and lights were renovated and modernised on 6 December 2002.[1]

In 2019, the station was used by 2,042,174 passengers, making it the 243rd busiest of the Métro network out of 302 stations.[2]

In 2020, the station was used by 1,131,814 passengers amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, making it the 230th busiest of the Métro network out of 305 stations.[3]

In 2021, the station was used by 1,512,050 passengers, making it the 233rd busiest of the Métro network out of 305 stations.[4]
