Reuilly-Sauvigny (French pronunciation: [ʁœji soviɲi]) is a commune in the Aisne department in Hauts-de-France in northern France.

The village is located in Condé-en-Brie, in the south of the Aisne department, bordering on the Marne department. About 10 kilometres to the east of the commune is Château-Thierry, which is located on a hillside in Marne.

History

Two surrounding fords meant it was easiest to cross la Marne at the top of the commune, making it a strategic point during the two World wars, during which Reuilly was very heavily damaged.
