The Bronze-Age stone is thought to be 4,000 years old. The first map of France was drawn by Oronce Finé and printed in woodcuts in 1525.

The ''châtelain'' was originally, in Carolingian times, an official of the ''comte'' (count); with the development of feudalism the office became a fief, and so ultimately hereditary.
