Les Autels (French pronunciation: [le.z‿otɛl]) is a commune in the department of Aisne in the Hauts-de-France region of northern France.
Geography[]
Les Autels is located some 35 km west of Charleville-Mézières and 10 km south of Aubenton. The northern and eastern borders of the commune are the departmental border between Aisne and Ardennes. Access to the commune is by the D1100 road from Brunehamel in the west which passes through the village and continues south to join the D530 south of the village. The D530 goes north in the commune changing to the D10B at the border and continues north to Blanchefosse-et-Bay. Apart from the village there is also the hamlet of Haut-Chemin south of the village. The commune is mostly farmland with some scattered forests.[2]
The Ruisseau du Moulin Bataille flows through the north of the commune towards the southwest forming part of the western border before continuing south to join the Serre near Mainbresson. An unnamed stream rises near the village and flows southwest to join the Ruisseau du Moulin Bataille.[2]
