Brunoy

Brunoy is a suburb in the Essonne region, situated between the Forest of Senart and the Yerres River, roughly 20 kilometers southeast of Paris. The area includes residential neighborhoods, green spaces, and an old town center with its church.

The community started as a small village and grew rapidly in the 20th century as the Paris area expanded. This transformation from rural settlement to modern suburb shaped its character today.

The Saint-Médard Church shapes the town center with its 18th-century architecture and hosts regular musical performances that draw visitors from surrounding areas. These traditions give the place a local character beyond everyday life.

Brunoy station on the RER line D connects the town directly to central Paris destinations and offers convenient access throughout the day. The town center and surrounding green areas are easy to explore by bike or on foot.

Three megalithic stones from prehistoric times remain scattered across the town, showing that the area was inhabited thousands of years ago. These stones stand as traces of an ancient past within the modern residential landscape.
