Assomption is a station on the Green Line of the Montreal Metro in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is in the district of Mercier in the borough of Mercier–Hochelaga-Maisonneuve. It was inaugurated on June 6, 1976, as part of the extension of the Green Line to Honoré-Beaugrand.
Designed by Duplessis and Labelle, it is a normal side-platform station built partially in tunnel, with access through a deep open cut leading to the single entrance. Murals by Guy Montpetit are exhibited in the entrance building and the hallways to the stairwell.

This station (formerly named L'Assomption, a name still seen on the station's nameplates) is named for boul. de l'Assomption, so named in 1951 to commemorate Pope Pius XII's confirmation of the dogma of the Assumption of Mary in his 1950 apostolic constitution Munificentissimus Deus.
