Roissy-en-France, Administrative commune in Val-d'Oise, France
Roissy-en-France is a commune in Val-d'Oise north of Paris covering roughly 14 square kilometers. A substantial portion of Charles de Gaulle Airport extends across the commune's territory and shapes its layout.
The commune was established in 1968 from parts of Seine-et-Oise, shifting from agricultural land into suburban territory. The construction and expansion of Charles de Gaulle Airport in the 1970s fundamentally altered the area.
The village maintains its local character despite airport proximity, with a cultural center that hosts exhibitions and events for residents. This blend of rural tradition and modern development shapes the community's identity.
The location is well connected to Paris by road and lies near railway stations serving the airport. Visitors should expect flight noise in many areas and note that infrastructure is primarily airport-oriented.
Despite its importance to aviation, the place remains largely invisible to many travelers, as the airport occupies most attention. The commune itself preserves quiet residential areas that exist beyond the airport infrastructure.
