A little history
The site has been occupied since the Neolithic period. A vault, linked to a dwelling, in which 46 different individuals were identified, was discovered to the north of the commune between Saint-Doulchard and Fussy. These bones date back to a period between 6,000 BC and 2,200 BC. Before the Roman period, it was the territory of the Gaulish people of the Bituriges Cubes, which meant "the kings of the world".
