Goussainville

The municipality stretches across 11.52 square kilometers and contains two train stations on Paris RER line D, situated near Charles de Gaulle Airport.

The village expanded from 600 inhabitants to a town of 30,000 residents following the railway construction and residential developments in the early 20th century.

The Renaissance-era Saint-Pierre-Saint-Paul Church, built between 1550 and 1564, represents a prime example of rural architectural design from that period.

Goussainville maintains thirteen public preschools and thirteen primary schools, accommodating 1,718 preschoolers and 2,782 elementary students across the commune.

A 1973 Tupolev Tu-144 crash during the Paris Air Show caused the deaths of fourteen people and altered the demographic distribution of the town.
