Reuil-en-Brie (French pronunciation: [ʁœj ɑ̃ bʁi] , literally Reuil in Brie) is a commune in the Seine-et-Marne department in the Île-de-France region in north-central France.

The settlement grew up around the monastery founded by Rado, a mayor of the palace of Burgundy,[3] in about 630, which from his name was called Radolium.[4] In later times it was a priory of Cluny.
