Mortain, Administrative division in Normandy, France

The municipality of Mortain extends across an area of 162 square kilometers through the green landscapes of northwestern France, near Mont Saint-Michel.

In 2016, Mortain merged with neighboring communes Bion, Notre-Dame-du-Touchet, Saint-Jean-du-Corail, and Villechien to form the new commune of Mortain-Bocage.

The local population maintains strong ties to regional traditions through regular markets, festivals, and the production of Norman specialties like cider.

The town contains essential services, shops, and transportation connections to Paris, while serving as a base for exploring Normandy's natural attractions.

Two waterfalls, the Grande Cascade with its 25-meter drop and the smaller Petite Cascade, represent the largest waterfalls in the Normandy region.
