Absolutely yes. In 2008 an EF4 tornado hit the town of Hautmont.

In 1967 a tornado outbreak hit France,Belgium and Netherlands producing an F5 tornado in Palluel and an F4 tornado in Pommereuil with a width of 2.5 km (1.6 mi).

On June 3, 1902 an F3/F4 tornado hit Javaugues reaching a width of 3 km (1.9 mi). (The largest on record in Europe) and finally in 1845 an F5 tornado hit the town of Montville, the strongest on record in Europe.

In addition to these, weak tornadoes occur fairly regularly.
