*************

Lisieux (French pronunciation: ?[li.zjø]) is a commune in the Calvados department in the Basse-Normandie region in northwestern France. It is the capital of the Pays d'Auge area, which is characterised by valleys and hedged farmland.

Lisieux is situated on the confluence of the river Touques and many of its tributaries: the rivers Orbiquet, Cirieux and Graindain.

The town is in the heart of the Pays d'Auge, of which it is the capital. Lisieux is therefore surrounded by Normandy's typical hedged farmland, where there is a mix of livestock farming (mostly milk cows) and cider apple cultivation (from which cider and calvados are made, not forgetting pommeau).

Lisieux est une commune française, située dans le département du Calvados en région Basse-Normandie, peuplée de 21 391 habitants^{[Note 1]} appelés Lexoviens et Lexoviennes.

Lisieux est la capitale du pays d'Auge, région caractérisée par ses vallées et son bocage.
