Martin Nadaud is a merged station formerly serving Line 3, and is one of Paris Métro's ghost stations. The station was named after Martin Nadaud.
This station was absorbed into Gambetta following line reorganisation in 1969. During the 1960s, it became evident that Porte de Bagnolet was inadequately served by public transport, although strong demand existed. Therefore planners decided to extend line 3 towards Bagnolet from Place Gambetta . Because the number of travelers to Porte de Bagnolet was expected to be much larger than towards Porte des Lilas, development of a fork was rejected. The planned terminus at Porte des Lilas gave way to one at Bagnolet, with a shuttle comprising line 3a between the Gambetta station and the one at Porte des Lilas.
The Gambetta station was extensively redesigned, using the original station as the terminus of line 3a and creating new platforms for line 3. The Martin Nadaud station, only 232 meters from the old station, was absorbed by the new station. Its access and ticketing hall have now become an entrance to the Gambetta station. The entrance is located on Place Martin Nadaud.
The new Gambetta station was commissioned 23 August 1969, line 3a was established on 27 March 1971, and the extension to Bagnolet was opened to the public on 2 April 1971.

The Théâtre national de la Colline is a theatre at 15, rue Malte-Brun in the 20th arrondissement of Paris. The closest métro station is Gambetta. It is one of the five national theatres dedicated to drama which are entirely supported by the French Ministry of Culture. The other four are the Odéon-Théâtre, the Comédie-Française, the Théâtre National de Chaillot, and the Théâtre National de Strasbourg. Its status as a national theatre mandates that its mission is to promote contemporary works, hence the Colline mainly stages works of the twentieth century.
Various artists have succeeded at the direction of the theatre. Jorge Lavelli directed the theatre from 1987 to 1996, stage director Alain Françon directed it from 1996 to 2010. In January 2009, stage director, Stéphane Braunschweig became an associate artist at the theatre and assumed the directorship from 2010 to 2016. Actor, author and stage director Wajdi Mouawad was appointed director in April 2016.
