Corenton Celton is situated in the community of Issy-les-Moulineaux. The station opened on 24 March 1934 under the name Petits Ménages, named after the hospice that moved from the 7th arrondissement to Issy-les-Moulineaux. On 15 October 1945 the station was renamed in honor of Corenton Celton, a hospice worker shot by the nazis.

It is served by the metro line 12.
