geography
location
Tramoyes is located at 301 m , about 42 kilometers south-southwest of the prefecture of Bourg-en-Bresse , 16 km northeast of the city of Lyon and 49 km south-southeast of the city of Mâcon (as the crow flies). The village extends in the countryside and historical province of Dombes in the southwest of the department. Tramoyes' neighboring communities are Mionnay in the north, Montluel and La Boisse in the east, Beynost and Saint-Maurice-de-Beynost in the south and Miribel in the south and west.
topography
The area of the 12.93 km 2 municipal area includes a section of the southern Dombes, a plateau in the Bresse-Saône ditch crossed by ponds and lake plateaus (French: étangs ) . In its northern half there are several of these characteristic ponds and swamps. In the south it borders on the Côtière landscape , which is characterized by an abrupt drop in terrain from the Dombes to the Rhone alluvial plain . The settlement area of Tramoyes lies on a hill protruding about 10 m from the plain, on which its highest elevation is reached at 308 m . Outside the actual town center and its southern extensions, Rue Neuve, Glettin and Le Colombier, there are the farms La Volière ( 272 m ) in the west and Le Port ( 288 m ) in the south. The community area is drained to the west via a network of moats. 86% of the communal land is used for agriculture with fields, the rest is divided between forests, residential buildings and water areas.
history
The equation of Tramoyes with the Stramiacum , mentioned in 835 as the meeting place of Louis the Pious , could not be maintained. The first secure documentary mention took place in the Middle Ages in 1250 as Ecclesia de Tremoies and thus as a parish that was subordinate to the Archbishop of Lyon . Its spelling changed via Tremoyes (1280) to Tramoyes . From that time until 1690, the lands of Tramoyes were a fiefdom depending on the rule of Miribel with its own permanent house , the maison forte de Gletens or Glettin, first noted in the 14th century . It stood near today's Glettin district on a moth , of which only basic features have survived .
After the French Revolution , Tramoyes was assigned to the canton of Trévoux from 1793 to 1984 and to the canton of Reyrieux from 1984 to 2015 . It has belonged to the canton of Miribel since March 2015.
