Les Pavillons-sous-Bois (French pronunciation: [lɛ pavijɔ̃ su bwa] ) is a commune in the eastern suburbs of Paris, France. It is located 12.8 km (8.0 mi) from the center of Paris.

History

The commune of Les Pavillons-sous-Bois was created on 3 January 1905 by detaching its territory from the commune of Bondy but the first traces of activity on its territory are found around the 17th century. The name of the commune literally means "the lodges under wood". The lodges mentioned in the name are two guard lodges, built of local stone around 1770 and rehabilitated in 1998, that were located at the entrance of the estate belonging to the château du Raincy. The wood mentioned in the name is the ancient Bondy Forest which covered most of the area to the northeast of Paris.
