Jewel of the Pays d'Auge, in Normandy, the town of Vimoutiers was founded
over one thousand years ago and now has approximately 5000 inhabitants.

In the northeast of the Orne département, Vimoutiers is located in a wide valley, at the bottom of which peacefully flows the small river La Vie. The ground is clayey but ferruginous, and is ideal pastureland. Apple trees fill the fields and the hillsides around the town. Vimoutiers is located on the D 979 road, 17 miles (27 kilometers) south of Lisieux and 20 miles (32 kilometers) northeast of Argentan. It is the capital of its canton, a local administrative division.
