Argenton-sur-Creuse, Commune in central Indre, France.

The town stretches along both sides of the Creuse River, with houses featuring wooden balconies extending over the water from riverside buildings.

The medieval settlement originated around a castle, with the town center shifting across the Creuse River during the fifteenth century development phase.

The Museum of Shirt and Masculine Elegance, housed in a former riverside mill, presents the textile manufacturing heritage of the region.

The railway station connects travelers to Paris, Vierzon, and Limoges, while the A20 motorway provides direct road access to the town.

A memorial stands in remembrance of fifty-six civilians who lost their lives during Nazi forces actions against resistance movements in June 1944.
