Le Perreux-sur-Marne, Suburban commune in eastern Paris, France.
Le Perreux-sur-Marne is a suburban town east of Paris that stretches along the Marne River with residential neighborhoods and gardens as its main features. The area includes schools, small parks, and housing spread across terrain that slopes toward the water.
The area broke away from Nogent-sur-Marne in 1887 to become an independent commune in the Val-de-Marne department. This separation allowed it to develop its own local institutions and governance separate from its larger neighbor.
The town maintains a sister city relationship with Forchheim in Germany, with regular exchanges bringing residents together across borders. These connections shape how the community sees itself and its place in a broader European context.
Two railway stations connect the area to Paris: Nogent-Le Perreux on the RER E line and Neuilly-Plaisance on the RER A line, both with quick journeys to central Paris. The riverside areas are walkable and offer paths for strolling and relaxing.
The local government introduced a discreet support system by placing domestic violence assistance information inside pharmacy bags. This silent method reaches people who might not seek help openly or feel comfortable asking directly.
