Notre-Dame-des-Landes, Rural commune in Loire-Atlantique, France
The commune covers 137 square kilometers of agricultural land located 20 kilometers northwest of Nantes in the Pays de la Loire region.
The population of Notre-Dame-des-Landes decreased from 1,785 residents in 1872 to 1,127 in 1968 before growing again to reach 2,310 by 2021.
The area transformed into a zone of alternative agriculture where farmers cultivate wheat and buckwheat while maintaining collective living practices.
The commune operates under Mayor Jean-Paul Naud's administration from 2020 to 2026, managing local services for its growing population.
In 2018, the government canceled plans for a major airport project following years of opposition from local residents and environmental activists.
