Verneuil d'Avre et d'Iton

The commune stretches along the banks of the Avre and Iton rivers, featuring traditional Norman architecture and fortified stone structures throughout its streets.

Henri I Beauclerc, Duke of Normandy and King of England, established the original settlement in 1120 by constructing defensive walls and a strategic castle.

The municipality maintains its designation as one of the Petites Cités de Caractère, reflecting its commitment to preserving Norman architectural heritage.

Visitors can access the town through the train station at Place de la Gare or via major roadways D926, D840, D939, and N12.

The merger of Verneuil-sur-Avre and Francheville in 2017 created this new administrative entity, combining medieval fortifications with rural landscapes.
