Beuvron-en-Auge (French pronunciation: [bøvʁɔ̃ ɑ̃.n‿oʒ] , literally Beuvron in Auge) is a commune in the Calvados department and Normandy region of north-western France.
Beuvron is affiliated to Les Plus Beaux Villages de France ("the most beautiful villages of France"), an independent association of communes and communities of communes which seeks to promote as tourist destinations those small, picturesque French villages which meet its membership criteria.[3]
In 2012, the commune began partnering with the Japanese city of Hirosaki in Aomori Prefecture, which accounts for 20% of Japan's apple production. The partnership aims to promote economic and touristic development by creating opportunities related to apples.[4]
