The Aubette (French pronunciation: [obɛt] ) is a small river of Seine-Maritime département.[1] It is 7.9 km (4.9 mi) long.[2] It begins near Saint-Aubin-Épinay, and flows along the town Darnétal. It is joined by the river Robec before it flows into the Seine near Rouen. In the 19th century, the Aubette had a hundred mills, textiles, paper mills, etc.[3] Although the river Robec is longer than the Aubette (9 km) it is considered to be a tributary of Aubette.[4]
