History
- The station opened on February 26, 1911 as part of the first launch site of the then North-South line ( Saint-Lazare - Port de Saint-Ouen ) [2] called Berlin . With the outbreak of World War I, on August 2, 1914, the station was temporarily closed, but was re-commissioned on December 1 of that year, but under the current name - “Liege”, given in honor of the heroic battle of Liege that took place in the first months of the First World War II. [3] . March 27, 1931 the station became part of the Paris metro as part of line 13.
- With the outbreak of World War II, the station was closed and was again put into operation in a limited mode only on September 16, 1968, similar to restarting the Rennes metro station on line 12. Both stations worked only on weekdays from 5:30 to 20:00 the last trains stopped at the Liege station at about 7:50 p.m. Paris time. In 1982, a ceramic panel with the coat of arms of the city of Liège was installed at the station. [four]
- The administrations of the VIII and IX districts of Paris made a lot of efforts to achieve restrictions on the working hours, which led to the demonstration held near the station on March 9, 2006. On April 5, 2006, the Ile-de-France Transport Syndicate decided to abandon the practice of part-time work of metro stations, as a result of which on December 4, 2006, station restrictions were finally lifted. Prior to this, in order to get to the metro on weekdays in the evening and during the day on weekends, passengers had to use bus routes No. 81 and 95 in order to get to Saint-Lazare [5] .

Design and Design
The station consists of two single-vault shallow-laying halls, each of which has only one side platform (in the north - a platform in the direction of Chatillon - Montrouge , in the south - a platform in the direction of Le Curtius and Saint-Denis - Universitet . This is due to the narrowness of the ryu d'Amsterdam, under which the station is located [9] . Using the same or similar technology, the Anatole France station on line 3 and Commerce on line 8 were built in the Paris Metro in 1937. The vaults of the stations and track walls are decorated with mosaic patterns used by Sever South to Trimming of the stations built before the First World War. [4] . Each of the rooms is decorated with frescoes on the theme of Belgian cities.
