The Village

Location from Beauty and the Beast by Disney

Belle's 'poor provincial town' — a charming French hamlet that is also the most intellectually suffocating place in any Disney film, where conformity is comfort and curiosity is a character flaw.

Also known as: The Village, The Provincial Town, Belle's Village

What They Know

• Everyone's daily routine — the village operates like clockwork, which is exactly the problem
• The bookshop is Belle's only refuge and the bookseller is her only intellectual peer
• Gaston's Tavern is the social center — his word is law here because the village has never needed a better authority
• The forest east of town leads to the Beast's castle, though most villagers have never ventured deep enough to find it
• Maurice's cottage workshop is on the outskirts — close enough to be part of the village, far enough to be eccentric
