Location Edit

 
Station stairs

It is connected to the Bir-Hakeim métro station and to the 15th arrondissement by the Pont de Bir-Hakeim, which was opened in 1906 and is now classified as a historic monument. In the other direction, the tunnel leads to Trocadéro station. It is close to the Maison de Radio France, the headquarters of Radio France.

History Edit

The station opened as part of the former Line 2 South on 6 November 1903, when it was extended from Trocadéro to Place d'Italie. On 14 October 1907, Line 2 South was incorporated into Line 5. It was incorporated into Line 6 on 12 October 1942. It was named after the old village of Passy, and the Rue de Passy near the station. The villages of Passy, Chaillot and Auteuil were incorporated into Paris under Napoleon III in 1860 to form, with the Bois de Boulogne, the current 16th arrondissement of Paris. The station is near the location of the Barrière de Passy, a gate built for the collection of taxation as part of the Wall of the Farmers-General; the gate was built between 1784 and 1788 and demolished before 1859.[1][2][3][4]

Platforms Edit

Passy is a station of standard configuration. It has two platforms separated by the metro tracks. It has the particularity of being underground at its western end and elevated at the other end, because of the slope of the terrain. The ceiling of the first consists of a metal deck whose beams, silver in colour, are supported by vertical walls, while the rest of the platforms is sheltered by awnings supported by grey pillars. The bevelled white ceramic tiles cover the walls (the elevated part is also covered with bricks drawing geometric patterns on the outside) and the north-west tunnel exit, the opposite tunnel exit being glazed. The advertising frames are made of white ceramic and the name of the station is inscribed in Parisine font on enamelled plaques, projecting on the elevated side. The seats are yellow Motte style and lighting is provided by independent tubes. Access is mid-platform.

Bus connections Edit

The station is served by lines 32 and 72 of the RATP Bus Network.

Nearby Edit

It is connected to Bir-Hakeim station and the 15th arrondissement by the Pont de Bir-Hakeim (formerly Passy bridge-viaduct) completed in 1906 (classified as a historical monument).

It is about 750 m north of the Maison de la Radio et de la Musique.

Among the nearby buildings are the Majestic Passy cinema, the Lycée Saint-Louis-de-Gonzague high school, the Maison de Balzac and the Musée Clemenceau.
