A métropole (French pronunciation: [metʁɔpɔl] ^ⓘ; French for "metropolis") is an administrative entity in France, in which several communes cooperate, and which has the right to levy local tax, an établissement public de coopération intercommunale à fiscalité propre. It is the most integrated form of intercommunality in France, more than the communauté urbaine, the communauté d'agglomération and the Communauté de communes. The métropoles were created by a law of January 2014.

As of January 2025, there are 19 métropoles, and 2 métropoles with special status: Paris and Marseille (all in metropolitan France). Although the official name of the Metropolis of Lyon contains the word "métropole", legally, it is a territorial collectivity.^{[citation needed]}
