Maraîchers (French pronunciation: [maʁɛʃe] ) is a station on line 9 of the Paris Métro in the 20th arrondissement of Paris, located under the rue d'Avron. It is named after the nearby rue des Maraîchers. It in turn took its name from the market gardens "maraîchers" once located there; until the 20th century, the hills of Belleville and Montreuil were cultivated by many market-gardeners whose most famous product were the peaches from Montreuil.
