Named after the church of Pantin, next to the station.
The church of Saint-Germain, dedicated to Saint Germanus of Auxerre, is the historic church of Pantin’s town centre. A chapel stood in the middle of the village square in the 12th century; the present church was rebuilt from 1664 to plans by Michel Villedo. The station lies under the avenue Jean-Lolive, level with the church.
