Goncourt station

Goncourt (French pronunciation: [ɡɔ̃kuʁ] ⓘ) is a station on line 11 of the Paris Métro in the 10th and 11th arrondissements.

The station opened as part of the original section of the line from Châtelet to Porte des Lilas on 28 April 1935.

As part of the "Un métro + beau" programme by the RATP, the station was renovated and modernised on 25 April 2003.

It was humorously renamed "Nº1 au Goncourt de Beauté".

[2] As part of modernization works for the extension of the line to Rosny–Bois-Perrier in 2023 for the Grand Paris Express, the station was closed from 9 January 2019 to 26 February 2019 to raise its platform levels and its surface tiled to accommodate the new rolling stock that will be used (MP 14) to accommodate the expected increase in passengers and to improve the station's accessibility.
