Montlhéry, Administrative commune in Essonne, France

Located 26 kilometers south of Paris, Montlhéry extends over 3.3 square kilometers and contains a mix of residential areas and public facilities.

The commune originated as a strategic settlement on the Paris-Orléans road, with its castle reconstructed by King Philip II in the early 13th century.

The town maintains connections with German municipality Stetten am kalten Markt through cultural exchanges and community partnerships.

Municipal services and administrative procedures are handled at the town hall on rue Blanche de Castille, operating Monday through Saturday morning.

François Arago conducted speed of sound experiments from the town tower in 1822, using cannon fire for scientific measurements.
