Corbeil-Essonnes, Administrative commune in Essonne, France

Corbeil-Essonnes is a French municipality in Essonne, roughly 28 kilometers (17 miles) south of Paris. It sits where the Seine and Essonne rivers converge, forming a suburb with residential neighborhoods, shops, and local services.

Two separate settlements, Corbeil and Essonnes, merged in 1951 to form the current municipality. The area held importance during medieval times due to its river position.

The town grew over centuries at the point where two rivers meet, shaping its French municipal character. This natural junction helped form a center with its own identity.

The RER D line connects the municipality directly to Paris, making trips into the city straightforward. Visitors can walk to the train station from most residential areas.

Two medieval treaties were signed here: one with Aragon in 1258 and another with Scotland in 1326. These diplomatic events connected local history to European relations.
