Grande Rue, 01380 Bâgé-le-Châtel, BOURG-EN-BRESSE, France
The name of Bâgé-le-Châtel comes from a Gallo-Roman villa belonging to a certain Balgiasius. Bâgé-le-Châtel is the ancient capital of Bresse. In 1272, Bresse became part of Savoy when Sibylle de Bâgé, sole heir, married Amadeus V, Count of Savoy.
Bourg (today Bourg-en-Bresse), a fortified bastion with 3400 inhabitants, became the capital of Bresse. Bâgé remained a village, whereas Bourg expanded beyond its walls to become the city of today.
