Orléans
Straddling the Loire, Orléans, the capital of the Centre-Val de Loire region, is a garden city filled with parks and green spaces. The city of the Maid of Orléans is proud of its cultural and architectural heritage, which has earned it the "City of art and history" label. The old timber-framed facades of its historical centre have been spruced up.
A warm and friendly place, Orléans speaks through its soul with the Johannic Holidays, which pay tribute to its hero, Joan of Arc, every year in May. The iconic Festival de Loire, the largest inland marine festival in Europe, is held at full sail in late September.
Attractive and open to the world, Orléans has a strong economic fabric in which economic sectors such as cosmetics and logistics take pride of place. Sport also plays a prominent role. The local basketball team flies the flag for the city alongside fencing and judo.
Auffargis
Auffargis is a verdant patch in the heart of the Yveline Valley, 27km from Versailles and 50km from Paris. Home to 2,000 people spread across 1,725 ha - 600 of which are forested -, it has succeeded in maintaining its farms while fostering a dynamic commercial, non-profit and cultural scene.
Its rich cultural heritage includes Saint Andrew's Church, the Fontaine du Roi wash house, the Château de la Fontaine and the Château de la Villequoy, not to mention the magnificent Vaux-de-Cernay Abbey, which lies partly within Auffargis and belongs to the Rothschilds. Henri de Rothschild himself was a longtime mayor of the municipality. Two great car drivers, 1906 French Grand Prix winner François Szisz and the winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1937, Robert Benoist, also settled down here. Félix Levitan, who ran the Société du Tour de France from 1962 and 1987, was another mayor of Auffargis.
Stage route
The second day, which starts from Auffargis, is shaping up to be a quiet one. There will only be two third category passes at the start of the day, before 20 kilometers. The first intermediate sprint, at Pussay, will be at the 73rd kilometer, and the other will be at 122.4 km in Trainou. The finish will be located in Orléans, after 159.2 kilometers.
