About Nation
Nation is a major four-line interchange in eastern Paris, one of the busiest stations on the network. The Place de la Nation outside features the famous Triumph of the Republic sculpture - a colossal bronze group by Aimé-Jules Dalou. The station serves as the eastern endpoint of Line 1 (the oldest and now driverless line), and connects directly to the Vincennes-direction suburbs.
