Villiers is a station of the Paris Métro, serving Line 2 and Line 3.

The name is that of a village that was annexed by Paris in 1860.

This station was the terminus for the first section of line 3, the other terminus being Père Lachaise. When first built, the platforms for line 3 were parallel and at the same height as those for line 2. However, for the extension to Porte de Champerret, the line 3 platforms and tracks had to be lowered in order for trains to be able to pass underneath the line 2 tracks.
