List of stations of the Paris Métro

Ségur is a station of the Paris Métro, named after the Avenue de Segur although the station is on the Avenue de Suffren and the Avenue de Ségur is 100 meters away. Marquis de Ségur (1724-1801) was a Marshal of France and Secretary of State for War from 1780 to 1787. The name of Ségur is better known to the French from the novels of his grand-daughter by marriage, the Countess de Ségur (1799-1874).

The station is close to:

• UNESCO,
