Bobigny–Pantin–Raymond Queneau (French pronunciation: [bɔbiɲi pɑ̃tɛ̃ ʁɛmɔ̃ kəno]) is a station on line 5 of the Paris Métro, located on the border between the communes of Pantin and Bobigny, in Seine-Saint-Denis, Île-de-France. It is named after the communes of Bobigny and Pantin, as well as the nearby rue Raymond Queneau, named after Raymond Queneau (1903-1976), a 20th-century French author and member of the Oulipo group whose most famous works were Zazie dans le métro and Exercices de style, set on a bus. Despite its name, the station serves mainly Pantin (district of Petit-Pantin) and Romainville (district of the Bas-Pays). It only serves a thin industrial fringe in Bobigny.
