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.
