Aubenton is a French commune in the department of Aisne in the Picardy region of northern France. The inhabitants of the commune are known as ''Aubentonnais'' or ''Aubentonnaises''〔(Inhabitants of Aisne ) 〕 ==Geography== Aubenton derives its name from its location near the confluence (in the commune of Hannappes to the east) of the Aube (Thon) and the Thon. The commune is located some 70 km east of Saint Quentin and 40 km west by north-west of Charleville-Mézières. The D1043 (E44) road from Hirson to Charleville-Mézières runs along the northern border of the commune. The village can be accessed from this road by the D5 road running south-east or the D37 road running south-west. The D5 road continues through the commune and south, changing to the D977, and continuing to Rozoy-sur-Serre. The D37 road continues west from the village to Besmont. There is also the D38 road from Leuze in the west passing through the village and continuing to Hannappes in the east. The railway from Hirson to Charleville-Mézières also passes through the commune following the course of the Thon river but there is no station in the commune – the nearest being at Liart to the east. The commune is about 80% farmland with the rest extensive forests in the south. There are a number of hamlets other than the village. These are: * Bas Val La Caure * Buirefontaine * Haute Val la Caure * Hurtebise * La Rue Larcher * Le Bois Carbonnet * Ribeauville * Saint-Nicholas The Thon River flows from east to west through the north of the commune eventually joining the Oise river at Etreaupont. The ''Ruisseau de Bois Carbonnet'' rises in the south of the commune and flows west then north joining other tributaries then the Ton river.〔(Google Maps )〕 Aubenton is surrounded by 7 communes: Brunehamel, Iviers, Beaumé, Leuze, Any-Martin-Rieux, Logny-lès-Aubenton, and Mont-Saint-Jean.〔(Géoportail ), Map of Aubenton, consulted on 6 January 2012 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aubenton」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
