Jacques Bonsergent (French pronunciation:[ʒakbɔ̃sɛʁʒɑ̃]) is astation of theParis Métro, servingline 5 and located in the10th arrondissement of Paris.

The station was opened on 17 December 1906 as the northern terminus of Line 5 fromPlace d'Italie, replacing the temporary terminus ofQuai de la Rapée, before the line was extended toGare du Nord on 15 November 1907. The stations original name of Lancry is after proximity to the Rue de Lancry and its former local owner, Sieur Lancry. The station kept that name until 1946.

The current name refers to the Place Jacques Bonsergent, named afterJacques Bonsergent, an engineer who became the first Parisian (and possibly first French) civilian executed by the German occupation in 1940. Bonsergent was born atMalestroit, in 1912 and was condemned to death by a German military tribunal on 5 December 1940 after being accused, and found guilty, of an act of violence against German soldiers during the night of 10 November. The execution was carried out on 23 December 1940 at theBois de Vincennes; the commanding officer was GénéralOtto von Stülpnagel. Bonsergent's remains lie in the cemetery at Malestroit, Brittany.

The station has two access points, each consisting of a fixed staircase:

• Access 1 - Boulevard de Magenta / Place Jacques-Bonsergent - embellished with a mast with a yellow "M" in a circle;
• Access 2 - cnr. Rue de Lancry / Boulevard de Magenta, adorned with a Dervaux candelabrum.
