This moth could have come from prehistory on the foundations of a building . A lay monastery was also established in Vauzé, which was dependent on the vicomte of Béarn.

In the census of 1385 7 households were counted in Basilhoo and it was noted that the settlement is in the Bailliage of Pau. Bassillon is also mentioned in the following: Basilhoo (census, 1402), Bacilhoo (around 1540), Baxilho (1542), Basilhon (1546) and Bacilhon ( Reformation of Béarn, around 1550).

The former commune Vauzé appears in the mentions under the following toponyms : Bausee and Bauser (1538), Beauzé (1675), Vauzer (Reformation of Béarn 1682) and Vauser (counting of Candau , 1768). On the map of Cassini 1750, Bassillon is entered as Baßillon (= Bassillon ) and Vauzé as Vauzé . In 1833 the two villages merged.

Since the merger of the two villages, the number of inhabitants has declined until the 1960s and has shrunk to around a quarter. Since then it has remained at a level of little more than 70 inhabitants.
