The inhabitants of the commune are known as Aubignotins or Aubignotines.[1]

Geography

Aubigny-la-Ronce is located some 18 km south-west of Beaune and some 20 km east by north-east of Autun. The western border of the commune is the border between the departments of Côte-d'Or and Saône-et-Loire. Access to the commune is by the D33 road from Molinot in the north passing south down the eastern side of the commune and continuing to Nolay in the south. Access to the village is by the D33D road which branches west off the D33 in the commune, passes through the village, and continues west. Apart from the village there are the hamlets of Lavault in the north-west and La Chassagne in the south-west. Almost half of the commune is forested in the north-west with the rest farmland.[2]

The Petit Drée flows from the north forming much of the north-western border and continuing south-west to join the Drée at Epinac. The Ruisseau de Roncevaux rises in the east of the commune and flows north-west forming part of the northern border before joining the Petit Drée on the commune border.[2]

History

In 1208 Robert, chaplain of Aubigny-la-Ronce, gave one fifth of the tithe of Aubigny to the Abbey of Saint-Martin of Autun to be used for alms. Gautier II, Bishop of Autun, ratified the act in August 1208. In 1260 Hugues, Lord of Aubigny, gave land. His son and his mother also made new donations to be used for charity in 1263. Jean de Volnay, Equerry, also gave a fief in 1262. In the same year the lord of Aubigny paid homage for a fief that he held for the Abbey of Saint-Martin d'Autun in Aubigny.[3]

Demography

In 2010 the commune had 164 inhabitants. The evolution of the number of inhabitants is known from the population censuses conducted in the commune since 1793. From the 21st century, a census of communes with fewer than 10,000 inhabitants is held every five years, unlike larger towns that have a sample survey every year.[Note 1]

Notes

  1. ↑ At the beginning of the 21st century, the methods of identification have been modified by Law No. 2002-276 of 27 February 2002, the so-called "law of local democracy" and in particular Title V "census operations" allows, after a transitional period running from 2004 to 2008, the annual publication of the legal population of the different French administrative districts. For communes with a population greater than 10,000 inhabitants, a sample survey is conducted annually, the entire territory of these communes is taken into account at the end of the period of five years. The first "legal population" after 1999 under this new law came into force on 1 January 2009 and was based on the census of 2006.
