View of some tree branches, overhanging the River Eure, Chartres, France


The Eure is a river between Normandy and Centre-Val de Loire in north-western France, left tributary of the Seine. It is 229 km (142 mi) long. It rises at Marchainville in the Orne department and joins the Seine near Pont-de-l' departments are named after the Eure, namely Eure and Eure-et-Loir. Chartres is built on a hill on the left bank of the river Eure. Its renowned medieval cathedral is at the top of the hill, and its two spires are visible from miles away across the flat surrounding lands. To the southeast stretches the fertile plain of Beauce, the "granary of France", in which Chartres is the commercial centre
