Arcueil, Administrative commune in Val-de-Marne, France
Arcueil is a commune in the southern suburbs of Paris located in Val-de-Marne, extending across a territory marked by gentle topographical variation. The settlement sits on land that rises and falls gradually, creating the natural structure of the neighborhood.
The settlement takes its name from a Roman aqueduct documented from 1119 onward, which carried water across the Bièvre valley to serve ancient Paris. This engineering structure influenced the area's development and connection to the broader region for centuries.
The commune serves as a gathering point for residents through its community programs and public events held throughout the year. It has become known for supporting local engagement through various cultural initiatives that bring people together.
Two stations on Paris RER line B, named Laplace and Arcueil-Cachan, connect the area directly to central Paris and neighboring regions. This public transit access makes the locality easy to reach and navigate.
Orange, the telecommunications company, established its headquarters in this commune, making it a significant business hub in the southern suburbs. This corporate presence brought employment and economic activity that shaped the area's modern character.
