Excerpt from Wikipedia

Cluny–La Sorbonne (French pronunciation: ​[klyni la sɔʁbɔn]) is a station on Line 10 of the Paris Métro. Located in the 5th arrondissement, it serves the Latin Quarter on the Rive Gauche. The station is connected to the Saint-Michel–Notre-Dame on RER B and RER C. In 2013, the station was used by 2,509,657 passengers, making it the 219th busiest out of 302 on the Métro network.

History

The station was opened as Cluny on 15 February 1930 with the extension of Line 10 from Odéon to Place d'Italie (now on Line 7). This station was closed between 2 September 1939 and 15 December 1988, when it reopened to connect with the new Saint-Michel–Notre-Dame RER station and give access to Boulevard Saint-Germain. The station is named after the Hôtel de Cluny and the Sorbonne. Its original name was simply Cluny; it adopted its current name upon reopening in 1988.

This station is unusual on the Métro network for having a third, centre track that is not used in revenue service. This track is used in non-revenue service to connect the tracks of Line 4 and Line 10.
