Location History
The Evry racecourse, also known as the Ris-Orangis racecourse, the Bondoufle racecourse or the Arcades racecourse, is a French racecourse that was active from 1973 to 1996. When it was inaugurated, the racecourse was the most modern in Europe, thanks in particular to its computerized systems for recording bets. It is the work of the architect Jacques Regnault.
