Paris - Métro Map 1973
A map of the Paris Métro (subway) system in 1973, when I visited Paris. .
I became quite familiar with the Métro map during my first time in Paris, in May 1960. This map has the new "RER" lines, in orange. This map must be 1973, not visits in 1968 or 1979. There were no RER lines in 1968. The Étoile station at the Arc de Triomphe was renamed Étoile-Charles de Gaulle shortly after de Gaulle's death in 1970. You can see (or imagine) de Gaulle's name in very small print. RER lines were given letters as definitions in 1977, and the letters are not on this map.
Paris Métro lines are defined by their end points. A few of the lines in 1960 have been extended, and had new definitions. I remember line 8 as Charenton-Écoles in 1960, but it went well into the suburbs in 1973;
