Villejuif – Louis Aragon is a station of the Paris Métro, located in the commune of Villejuif. It is the terminus station on the south branch of Line 7. It serves the commune of Villejuif. It was opened when Line 7 was extended from Le Kremlin-Bicêtre on 28 February 1985.

The station is named after the Avenue Louis Aragon and Louis Aragon (1897–1982) a French writer. The station is also the northern terminus of tram line T7, which opened on 16 November 2013.

An extension of line 14 from Olympiades to Maison Blanche is planned, possibly taking over the branch to Villejuif – Louis Aragon.
