Historical and Current Curiosities
Interesting facts about Line 7 bis of the Paris Metro:
- Originally opened in 1911 as part of Line 7, Line 7 bis became its own line due to low passenger demand on this branch.
- It is the second shortest line of the Paris Metro, after Line 3 bis.
- The line serves Parc des Buttes Chaumont, known for its bridge designed by Gustave Eiffel and its picturesque pathways.
- Botzaris station offers close access to the La Mouzaïa neighbourhood, known for its quiet streets and houses with small gardens, a charming spot rarely visited by tourists.
