Chaville

Chaville is a commune in the Hauts-de-Seine department located roughly 10 kilometers west of Paris. The settlement spreads across elevated land and connects to the capital through bus routes and train services.

The settlement began around 550 as the village of Ursine and later evolved into a parish called Inchadivilla. This early foundation shaped what the community became in later centuries.

The Church of Saint-Blaise stands as a focal point where locals gather throughout the year for community occasions. Its presence reflects how residents have maintained their spiritual life over generations.

The commune is easily accessible via bus routes and train connections, making travel straightforward for both visitors and residents. The elevated terrain means gentle slopes are common when walking through the area.

Former French Chancellor Michel Le Tellier had a grand château built in the 17th century that drew inspiration from the Palace of Versailles. This structure reflects how the place gained prominence during the reign of King Louis XIV.
