Route des Bonnes Gens from Le Mesnilbus
In the Middle Ages, its name meant ‘small farmstead in the middle of the woods’. In 1792, its inhabitants refused to accept the change of regime brought about by the Revolution. Following a dispute with the king’s recruiter (who demanded more soldiers), the population rebelled, and the parish was removed from the register of parishes in France. The church was devastated, and the bells and the lords’ lead coffins were melted down.
