Small town of Essonne, Ile-de-France region, Soisy-sur-École takes place about thirty kilometers from Evry, on the banks of the river School. Encircled by the hills of White Tertre and Black Tertre, it is located forty-five kilometers from Paris and its monuments, on the edge of the Seine-et-Marne department.
Close to two important Roman roads, the one leading from Melun to Étampes and the one going from Paris to Lyon, it has benefited since Antiquity from an ideal geographical location. However, we must wait until the end of the 10th century for an official mention of the village that will later become the village that we know today. The locality of Niki de Saint-Phalle, famous sculptor appreciated all over the world, elegantly combines charm and tradition, offering an architectural heritage of great interest.
