Château-Landon is a station on line 7 of the Paris Métro
in the 10th arrondissement.
The station was opened on 5 November 1910 as part of
the first section of the line from Opéra to Porte de la Villette.
It is named after the Rue Château-Landon, a street which
was built on propety once owned by a family from
Château-Landon in Seine-et-Marne.
The street is on the alignment of the Roman road from Lutetia
towards the North via Saint-Denis.
It is planned to become the end of the future Paris Métro Line 15
(created from the merging of line 3bis and line 7bis) by 2013.
It is also planned to build an underground pedestrian connection
to the RER Line E station of Magenta, which would also link to the
Gare du Nord and the Gare de l'Est.
