Origin of the name

This station, formerly known as L'Assomption, (a name that can still be observed on the station's nameplates), derives its name from Assomption boulevard. The boulevard was named as such in 1951, commemorating Pope Pius XII's affirmation of the dogma of the Assumption of Mary in his 1950 apostolic constitution, Munificentissimus Deus.
