The station was put into service in 1889 and closed in 1993. It was transformed into a tram station and reopened, like the line, in 1997.[2] Its passenger building was repurposed; it houses the Musée d'histoire urbaine et sociale de Suresnes, opened in 2013.

Having become a tram station of the Régie Autonome des Transports Parisiens (RATP), it is served by the trains of line T2.[3]
