The station was opened on 27 July 1937 as part of the extension of line 8 from La Motte-Picquet - Grenelle to Balard. The station is named after Aristide Boucicaut, who opened Le Bon Marché, sometimes considered the world's first department store. His second wife assisted Louis Pasteur and founded the Boucicaut Hospital near the station.

gollark: Well, yes, but then lots of programs would break.
gollark: That would be annoying and no. What I *can* do, however, is make it so that `potatOS` is there but will not show in e.g. autocomplete.
gollark: Although I could do some eldritch stuff to hide it.
