Chilly-Mazarin (19,938 inhabitants in 2021; 557 ha) is a commune in the southern suburbs of Paris. There
are 19,950 inhabitants on 5.57 km².
A small part of Orly International Airport lies on the territory of
the commune of Chilly-Mazarin.
Chilly-Mazarin developed around a Roman villa named Cailliacum (which
evolved into Chailly then Chilly). The suffix -Mazarin was added in
1822 to distinguish it from other French villages named Chilly and
refers to the Mazarinettes, the famed nieces of Cardinal Mazarin who
resided several years at a mansion in Chilly. The fourth niece,
Hortense Mancini (1646-1699), transmitted to her son the titles of
Marquess of Chilly and Duke of Mazarin which were ultimately passed to
the House of Grimaldi, reigning house of Monaco.
