The station is named after the Avenue Louis Aragon and Louis Aragon (1897–1982), a French writer.
Early plans to extend line 14 from Olympiades to the Orly Airport included the possibility of taking over the existing line 7 branch from Maison Blanche to this station. However, the inclusion of line 14 in the Grand Paris Express project means that the line 14 extension to Orly will only consist of new infrastructure and the plan has been shelved. Line 15 (another Grand Paris Express line) will serve this station from late 2025 onwards (as of August 2021),[1][2] one year later than originally intended in 2024,[3] with construction having started in 2017.
In 2020, the station was used by 4,029,467 passengers amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, making it the 28th busiest of the Métro network, out of 305 stations.[4]
