The Eure [ œːʀ ], or Autura in older times , is a river in northwestern France. It rises in the Perche Regional Nature Park , near La Lande-sur-Eure , at an altitude of 220 meters, where several streams form the Eure. It drains in its upper reaches to the southeast, turns north at Chartres and flows into the Seine after 229 kilometers in Saint-Pierre-lès-Elbeuf as a left tributary . The estuary is a so-called dragged-out estuary : although the Seine has already been reached at Pont-de-l'Arche , the Eure runs parallel to the Seine for another six kilometers until it finally flows into it. Two departments are named after the Eure, namely Eure and Eure-et-Loir .
