The station was opened on 10 December 1933 with the extension of the line from Richelieu–Drouot to Porte de Montreuil. It was originally called Rue des Boulets – Rue de Montreuil, before it was simply renamed Boulets – Montreuil. In 1998 it was renamed after the neighbouring Rue des Boulets. The street (which has had its current name since 1672) is part of the old road between Saint-Denis and Saint-Maur.[citation needed]
