Trinité - d'Estienne d'Orves is a station of the Paris Métro, named after the nearby church of the "Trinité" and the "Place d'Estienne d'Orves".

The church was built by Ballu between 1861 and 1867. The street commemorates Henri Honoré d'Estienne d'Orves (1901-1941), who was a French Navy officer, and reputed "first martyr of Free France" and one of the major heroes of the French Resistance.
