Solution

The correct option is A Coupvray
  • Louis Braille was born in Coupvray, a small town about twenty miles east of Paris, on 4 January 1809.
  • He and his three elder siblings – Monique Catherine (b. 1793), Louis-Simon (b. 1795), and Marie Céline (b. 1797)– lived with their parents, Simon-René and Monique, on three hectares of land and vineyards in the countryside. Hence, Louis Braille was born in Coupvray.
So, the correct answer is 'Coupvray'.
