Châtenay-Malabry is a French commune with 33,286 inhabitants (as of January 1, 2017) in the Hauts-de-Seine department in the Île-de-France region .
Origin of name
The name Châtenay is most likely derived from the Latin castellanum , which could designate small castles or Roman camps. This would point to a settlement in the 1st or 2nd century, which is supported by archaeological finds from the Gallo-Roman era. Objects from prehistoric and Celtic times were also discovered during excavations.
Earlier it was Châtenay of châtaignier , the chestnut tree derived. It is true that there are a large number of them in the area of the municipality. But they can only be found relatively late in the region.
Malabry could indicate poor soil or mauvais terrain , as there are actually a number of slopes there.
history
Châtenay is mentioned for the first time in a letter from Abbot Irminon in the 9th century under the name Castenatum . The area belonged to the cathedral chapter of the Paris cathedral until the French Revolution.
In 1936 there was an extensive exchange of territory between Châtenay and the neighboring municipality of Antony . Parts of the Parc de Sceaux came to Antony, the north-western area of which went over to Châtenay.
After his exile from Paris, Voltaire lived in Châtenay from the beginning of 1719 until he returned to his parents' house, the Château de la Roseraie .
present
In Châtenay-Malabry, surrounded by a park of the same name, is the Vallée-aux-Loups , a property formerly owned by Chateaubriand . In addition, part of the Forêt de Verrières recreational area is in the Châtenay-Malabry district, and the Parc de Sceaux borders the municipality to the east.
A large number of the Châtenaisiens live in Butte Rouge , the most densely populated district. This garden city ( Cité-Jardin ) was one of the first HLMs to be built in Île-de-France since 1950 ; these are “apartments with moderate rents”, ie a settlement that was consistently determined by social housing .
Châtenay-Malabry also has the École Centrale Paris and the UFR de Pharmacie, a scientific pharmaceutical faculty. The high-speed line LGV Atlantique crosses the town in the Coulée verte (literally "green electricity"), a cross-town, elongated local recreation area above the underground railway line. The closest train station on the route is Massy TGV , about four kilometers south of the city limits of Châtenay-Malabry. The closest connection to the local rail network is a few kilometers away in the neighboring municipality of Sceaux, the Robinson station on the RER B line , which can be reached by bus from Châtenay-Malabry. Line 10 of the Paris tram , planned for 2020, will pass through the area of the municipality of Châtenay-Malabry.
The Paris ring motorway A86 borders the municipality to the south and crosses the Forêt de Verrières to the west of the local area.
Since January 1, 2003, Châtenay-Malabry has been part of the Communauté d'agglomération des Hauts-de-Bièvre and is also home to its administrative headquarters.
