Welcome More about Orret The Municipality of Orret A small Burgundy village situated between Dijon and Troyes (next to the old N71, now the D971, opposite Baigneux-les-Juifs), in the department of Côte d’Or, on the edge of the River Seine. Orret sits on the borders of Auxois, Châtillonais and Pays de Saint-Seine. Origins The village boasts ancient origins. In 722 it was called Auderati. The ruins of a gallic-roman oppidum were still visible at the end of the XIXth Century. It may have been part of, or very close to the roman way which joined Alésia to Langres. Middle Ages Dependent on the Augustine convent, Notre-Dame d'Oigny, it was established as an independent community in 1579. At the end of the XIXth Century there were more than 200 inhabitants in the village. Today there remain about 20 people only. A small chapel, dedicaced to Saint Reine, built in the XVth Century and renovated in the XVIth Century, stands in the centre of the village. A curious point of interest A monument in the form of a rustic stairway runs from the village to the washhouse and the drinking trough, along the edge and to the end of the small, neighbouring valley. This passage leading to an abundance of water from the source was most certainly very animated and well frequented in its day by the villagers and cattle. |
