Only 15 kilometers southwest of Paris but preserved from urbanization, Francilienne is located in the heart of the Bièvre Valley. But Jouy-en-Josas has preserved its identity as a village, promoting the quality of life of its inhabitants, the Jovaciens, while integrating into its territory many poles of training or research (HEC Campus, research center INRA, Campus Thales…).
But Jouy-en-Josas is also world famous for its Jouy Cloth Factory, now illustrated by the Museum of Toile de Jouy, and the presence of famous people who have found the peace of the resort or the source of their inspiration.
