From the Middle Ages to the Revolution:
From the 9th century, Jambles belonged to the church then to the Abbey of Cluny and around the 11th century to the Bishop of Chalon. A cartulary of Saint-Vincent de Chalon of 1263, mentions the presence of a hospital establishment which receives the sick, the homeless and travelers at a place called the Maison-Dieu.
In the 12th century, the canons of the chapter of Saint-Vincent Cathedral in Chalon-sur-Saône attached Jambles to the vidamie of the chapter. At the same time the archdeaconry of Chalon included the archpriest of the Mountain established at Jambles which included Givry, Buxy, Saint-Gengoux, Saint-Jean-de-Vaux and Mont Saint-Vincent.
At the end of the 15th century, the town belonged partly to the Benedictine abbey of Saint-Pierre de Chalon-sur-Saône and partly to the lords of Charnailles, namely the families of Ciry, Distenne, then Marloud (1628 -1710), of Mucie (1714-1731), finally Cortois-Humbert (1731-1789).
During the Revolution, the castle was sold as national property, it returned under the Empire to an officer of the imperial armies, Mr Pagan-Thorin. The old church of Jambles was located at the top of the Santon, it also served Russilly. Thereafter the current church of pure Clunisian style is in the center of the village: the bell tower and the choir are from the 11th century and the side chapels rebuilt in the 15th century.
The "Jambloise Brotherhood" was created in 1508, in honor of the Blessed Sacrament. A great storm hit the town on June 8, 1613. Between 1614 and 1630, there were men-at-arms, frosts, hail, drought, storms causing food shortages and plague epidemics. On the night of May 15 to 16, 1736, a frost hit the vineyard very hard and on July 31, 1737, a heavy hailstorm hit the vines.
