ASNIÈRES-SUR-SEINE
Bordering the left bank side of the river, the town of Asnières-sur-Seine is located in the northwest suburbs of the capital, thus benefiting from a strategic location.
Rich of an architectural heritage spanning the ages, Asnières-sur-Seine is full of monuments and places that bear witness to the city’s prosperous past: from the Neolithic era, with its menhir located in the Square du Maréchal Leclerc, to the 18th century with its castle, emblem of the city, and also masterpieces from the Art Nouveau era with the house of Monsieur Vuitton or from the Art Deco era with the facade of the Main Post Office.
Its inner city around the train station remains the most sought-after district for its accessibility, its shops and its charm, while the west of the city hosts beautiful bourgeois residences from the beginning of the 20th century which are the most popular.
In terms of transport, the city is one of the most accessible of the inner suburbs, with a metro line (and soon an additional line as part of the Grand Paris Express) as well as two train lines connecting Saint-Lazare station in 7 minutes from downtown.
A small particularity has made it famous: the first cemetery of the modern era intended for pets, inaugurated in 1900, located in Robinson Park which runs along the banks of the Seine. Another green space of interest is the Square Leclerc located behind the Town Hall.
