AUTHON, LOIR-ET-CHER


'Authon' is a French village and commune about 200 kilometers south of Paris.
Located in the department of Loir-et-Cher next to Vendôme, it counts about 700 inhabitants. Economic activities are mainly agricultural, with some services including tourism (there are three castles, nature trails and a popular restaurant). A couple of streams run through the village's territory, including one facetiously named the Danube.
The village has supplied a resistance hero, François de Brantes, and, in his daughter Anne-Aymone, a wife to former president Valéry Giscard d'Estaing.
