Créteil–Préfecture station (French pronunciation: [kʁetɛj pʁefɛktyʁ]) is an elevated station on Line 8 of the Paris Métro in the commune of Créteil.

Its name refers to the nearby prefecture (administrative headquarters of the department) of the Val-de-Marne.

The 40 hectares (99 acres) Créteil Lake opened nearby in 1970 in place of a former quarry.
