TOWN PRESENTATION

Conty is a small town in southern Picardy Somme (20 km Amiens in 20 minutes, 6 miles from Junction 17 on A16), located in the valley of the saddle at the confluence of two rivers: the saddle and Evoissons. This valley, dotted with small rural villages with castles, churches and water mills plus many natural resources (woods, rivers, ponds) has successfully played the card of "green tourism".

Chief city of Canton, Conty has about 1700 residents. The city boasts many shops, activities and services: nurseries, establishment of nursery school to college, retirement home ...

Its proximity to Paris and Amiens, the regional capital, promotes its development.
