Front Populaire (French pronunciation: [fʁɔ̃ pɔpylɛːʁ]) is a station on Line 12 of the Paris Métro. Located in Aubervilliers on the border with Saint-Denis, the station is named in honour of Front Populaire, a coalition of left-wing parties that governed France from 1936 to 1938. It was the 301st station to open, opening on 18 December 2012 as the new northern terminus of line 12.
