Even today arable farming , fruit growing and cattle breeding have a certain place in the income structure of the population. Further jobs are available in local small businesses and in the service sector. The Rose de la Broye service area, which opened in 2001, is located on the A1 motorway in the municipality. In the past few decades, Lully has also developed into a residential community. Most of the employed are therefore commuters who work mainly in the Estavayer-le-Lac and Payerne regions.

history

The municipality of Lully was settled very early, which has been confirmed by finds of settlement traces from Roman times . The place was first mentioned in a document in 516 under the name Luliacum . Later the names Lulliaco (1011), Lulliacum (1017), Lulie (1228), Lulye (1285), Lulliez (1520) and Lullie (1668) appeared. The place name goes back to the Gallo-Roman personal name Lullius .

Lully came into the possession of the Abbey of Saint-Maurice as early as 516 by the Burgundian kings . Since the 11th century, the church has belonged to the Romainmôtier monastery . The lords of Estavayer held the secular rule. After Bern conquered Vaud in 1536, Lully was assigned to the Estavayer Bailiwick. After the collapse of the Ancien Régime (1798), the village was part of the Estavayer district during the Helvetic and subsequent periods before being incorporated into the Broye district in 1848. The village has been an independent parish since 1860.

Old Lully coat of arms

As part of the community mergers funded by the canton of Friborg since 2000, a merger project was developed with the aim of merging Bollion and Seiry with Lully. At the community meetings on April 22, 2005, the merger was approved by the voters of all three communities, but in Lully with a yes share of just 53%. The merger was completed with effect from January 1, 2006. At the same time, the new overall community received a new coat of arms.
