Rome (French pronunciation: [ʁɔm] ) is a station on Line 2 of the Paris Métro. It is located on the border of the 8th and 17th arrondissement.
The station is located under the central reservation of Boulevard des Batignolles, east bridge crossing the tracks to Gare Saint-Lazare. Oriented approximately along an east–west axis, it is located between Villiers and Place de Clichy stations.
The station was opened on 7 October 1902 as part of the extension of line 2 from Étoile to Anvers. The name is that of one of several streets in the area named for European capitals, in this case Rue de Rome, capital of Italy. Some of these streets having also given their patronym to the stations such as Europe on line 3 and Liège on the line 13. Rome metro station is also, with Iéna on line 9, Cité on line 4 as well as the closed station Haxo between lines 3a and 7a, one of four in the network whose name has only four letters.
As part of the RATP's Renouveau du métro program, the station was renovated on 5 November 2001. [1]
On 9 October 2019, half of the nameplates on the station's platforms are temporarily replaced by the RATP in order to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Astérix and Obélix, as in eleven other stations. [2] Taking up in particular the typography characteristic of the comics of René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo, Rome is humorously renamed Ils sont fous ces Romains! (They are crazy these Romans!) from the recurring phrase from Obélix. In addition, all of the advertising posters are also replaced by sketches from the famous comic strip.
In 2019, 2,753,714 travelers entered this station which placed it at 193rd position of the metro stations for its usage out of 303. [3]
The station has a single access entitled Boulevard des Batignolles, leading to the central reservation of this boulevard facing no. 60. Consisting of a fixed staircase, it is adorned with a Guimard entrance, which was registered as historic monuments by the decree of 12 February 2016. [4]
