[edit] History

Its opening dates from October 1904, with the beginning of service along the first section of Line 3 between the Avenue de Villiers (today's station is simply known as Villiers) and Père Lachaise.

The station is situated at the intersection of the rue de Caumartin and the boulevard Haussmann, and about 100 meters from the rue du Havre. The rue du Havre runs in front of the Gare Saint-Lazare, which is one of the principle destinations for Paris Métro travelers from Havre-Caumartin.

The station takes the last half of its name from the marquis de Saint-Ange, François Le Fèvre de Caumartin, who was a forerunner of the merchants of Paris during the 18th century. The station is located at one end of the street that today carries his name.
