Marcadet - Poissonniers is a station of the Paris Métro, serving Line 4 and Line 12.

Previously, there were two stations: Marcadet on Line 4 (operated by the CMP), which opened April 21st 1908 and Poisonniers on Line 12 (operated by the company). When the CMP took over the Nord-Sud in 1930, both stations were joined with an underground corridor. The joined station opened August 25th, 1931 under its current name. The name Marcadet is taken from the rue Marcadet (from the Latin "mercadus", "market"), which name appears on medieaval maps, and from the rue des Poissonniers, used by fishmongers to bring fish from the North to Paris.
