Croix de Chavaux (French pronunciation: [kʁwa ʃavo]) is a station on line 9 of the Paris Métro, at the crossroads called Croix de Chavaux. The "chavaux" in the name of the crossroads is probably a corruption of the French "chevaux" ("horses"). The "croix" (French for "cross) may be a reference to the crossroads or to a wayside cross.
