Arsenal is a ghost station on the Paris métro, situated on line 5 between the stations of Bastille and Quai de la Rapée, in the 4th arrondissement of Paris.
The Station
The station was closed on September 2, 1939, as a result of the mobilization of employees of the Compagnie du chemin de fer métropolitain de Paris (CMP) in World War II. It was never reopened and today serves as a training center for CMP agents. Access to the station is situated on the boulevard Bourdon.
Culture
Because of the station's location (just before Quai de la Rapée in the direction towards Voie des Finances, the station played a key element in the film La Grosse Caisse, starring Bourvil in 1965.
