Toponymy

The first mention of the place goes back to 1317 as Sarrigney . The name of the place is likely to be of Gallo-Roman origin. Presumably it referred to the possession of a Sarignius , in Gallo-Roman form Sarigniacum and finally became today's Serrigny . The addition en Bresse appears for the first time in 1598 and has been an integral part of the place name since 1844.

history

From the 14th to the beginning of the 18th century, the parish belonged to the Fussey family , then it passed to Thomas de la Valette . In 1736 Serrigny became part of the Marquisate of Marche . The Roman road between Seurre and Cuisery brushes the community to the east, there was a moth in the hamlet of Petit Velar and in 1856 there were still three flour mills, two of which were windmills. Until 1685 the place belonged to the parish of Saint-Martin-en-Bresse , the church is consecrated to Saint Francis of Assisi , the apse was built in 1867. The school, built in 1881, was closed in 1971. Allegedly, some of the houses on the west side of Chemin de Villeneuve are still of the Maison de la Lune type . In any case, one was built in 1851 on 50 m² of the municipal area, but had to be demolished in the same year on the instructions of the municipality. Another one exists in the hamlet of Bouchat, but has unfortunately been heavily rebuilt. At the end of the 19th century, the population lived largely from agriculture, fishing and carving clogs. All that remains of the Morin family's homestead is the stable; the 33-meter long house was rebuilt in 2000 at the entrance to Saint-Martin-en-Bresse . Serrigny-en-Bresse has a large proportion of Swiss and Dutch residents. In 1988 there were still 12 farms.
