Jasmin (Paris Métro)


Jasmin is a station on Line 9 of the Paris Métro. It serves Rue Jasmin in the 16th arrondissement. The station was first used with the opening of the first section of the line from Trocadéro to Exelmans.

History

The station was opened on 8 November 1922. It is named after the French poet Jacques Jasmin, called the wig-maker poet, whose works in Langue d’oc were the precursor of the Félibrige, the literary movement of Provençal.
Rue Jasmin is a section of the old Rue de la Cure. This was a reference to the medical cures claimed for the mineral springs of the former vineyards of the surrounding suburb of Auteuil. In 2005, the station was refurbished.
