Fresnes, Administrative commune in Val-de-Marne, France.

The commune of Fresnes spans 13.58 square kilometers in the southern suburbs of Paris, with a population density of 8,000 residents per square kilometer.

The name Fresnes originates from a 1152 papal document mentioning Fraxinum, referring to the ash trees that populated the local landscape during medieval times.

The MJC Louise Michel cultural center provides residents with access to cinema screenings, theatrical performances, and musical events throughout the year.

The municipal administration, under Mayor Marie Chavanon, operates from the town hall located on Pierre and Marie Curie Street, facing the local church.

The Bièvre River flows through Fresnes, with a 200-meter section restored to open air in 2003 within the Prés de la Bièvre park.
