Toussus-le-Noble

Toussus-le-Noble is best known within Île-de-France for Toussus-le-Noble Airport, a longstanding centre of general aviation. This small Yvelines commune stands on the Plateau de Saclay, southwest of Versailles, amid farmland and the research-oriented Paris-Saclay area. Aviation has defined the locality since the early 20th century: its aerodrome was established in 1907 and became associated with flying clubs, pilot training and private aircraft. It remains a working aviation site rather than a conventional tourist town, while Versailles provides a nearby historical counterpoint.
