A place rich in history: the amazing story that Mévouillon who, four centuries, created an empire by military power, lost it through lack of cash and disappeared into oblivion to the point that only a tiny village now commemorates their names . The original name, a Gallic tribe, the medulla, the reckless who are willing to participate (fifth century BC) to the shipping Bellovèze Gallic leader in Italy and will likely strain to founding a city Mediolanum, better known today as the name of Milan.
