Challain-la-Potherie (French pronunciation: [ʃalɛ̃ la pɔtʁi] ⓘ) is a village and a commune in the Maine-et-Loire department in western France.

In 2010 Challain-la-Potherie celebrated the tenth anniversary of its accord with the village of Somersham in Suffolk, England.

The accord has been very successful with annual coach trips between the two villages - visits alternating year and year about.

Many friendships have been formed and the twinning is particularly strong in the number of children and young people involved.
