Guérigny

Highlight • Other

Guérigny, a former industrial town, benefiting from the surrounding natural resources, iron ore, oak forests and numerous rivers. A factory, totally linked to shipbuilding, became one of the most important in France in the 18th century.

With the opening of the highway linking Nevers to Paris, the city is in a relatively privileged position, and real estate development has developed following this opening to the French capital.
