Vimoutiers, Administrative commune in Orne department, Normandy, France

Vimoutiers encompasses multiple villages with two rivers, the Vie and Viette, flowing through the territory at an average altitude of 164 meters.

The town experienced severe destruction during World War II when Allied forces bombarded the area on June 14, 1944, resulting in 220 civilian casualties.

The Camembert Museum in Vimoutiers honors Marie Harel, who created the famous soft cheese and spent her final days in this Norman commune.

The commune maintains a population of approximately 3,900 residents across 16 square kilometers, with established connections to neighboring Saint-Germain-de-Montgommery and Guerquesalles.

A German Tiger I tank from World War II stands in Vimoutiers as a registered historical monument since 1975, marking the town's military heritage.
