Mairie des Lilas station

Mairie des Lilas is a station of the Paris Métro in the commune of Les Lilas and was formerly the eastern terminus of Line 11. It is named after the town hall of Les Lilas. A small underground depot is located near the station to service the trains of Line 11. The station is sometimes believed to be the subject of the Serge Gainsbourg song "Le Poinçonneur des Lilas", about a Métro ticket inspector, although the promotional film for it was filmed at the Porte des Lilas.
