Presentation of Arnage

The city of Arnage (5,000 inhabitants; 1,076 ha) is part of the CUM (Communauté Urbaine du Mans).

Arnage is known by all fans of motor sports because of the famous virage d'Arnage (Arnage curve). This curve is located on km 10 of the Le Mans racing circuit. Interestingly, the circuit is mostly made of roads opened to normal traffic (except during races). The Arnage curve is a nearly 90° curve linking the departmental roads D140 and D139.
