history

Until 1900 Cadolive was a district of Saint-Savournin. Nevertheless, the village was largely independent before that: it already had a school, a post office, a church and a cemetery. The church, which is named after Saint Lazarus ( Saint-Lazare ), was built in 1851 and promoted to a parish in 1854. There is a tower clock above the church tower, which was replaced in 1908. Since 1867, a well ensured the place's drinking water supply. In 1894 a post office opened in town. The first public school opened a year later. There had been a private girls' school since 1879. In 1902 the first mayor, Albert Armand, had the town hall built at his own expense. In the same year a small clinic was set up behind the town hall to help mothers with childbirth. Street lighting was introduced in 1909, and in 1911 the precursors of public toilets emerged. Like its neighboring towns, Cadolive was heavily influenced by mining. The first mayor, Albert Armand, owned a mine in the Peypin parish. It was closed in 1954.
