Municipality of Val-de-Marne, in the Ile-de-France, Ablon-sur-Seine takes place on the left bank of the Seine, at the limit of the department of Essonne. It is located near Creteil, Vigneux-sur-Seine and Montgeron, in an ideal position to explore Paris and its fabulous monuments.
Inhabited since the Bronze Age, as evidenced by some remains found there, the territory of Ablon-sur-Seine is quoted from the twelfth century, especially its link with the Saint-Victor. Centered on the vine and fishing from the fifteenth century, the town is also illustrated throughout centuries by its strong Protestant presence, particularly through the castle built by Agnes Sorel.
The economy of Ablon-sur-Seine has always been oriented towards the use of the river, particularly through trade in timber, coal and wine, before becoming an important residential town in the Paris region in the nineteenth century.
