Hurigny (French pronunciation: [yʁiɲi]) is a commune in the Saône-et-Loire department in the region of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté in eastern France.

History

[edit | edit source]

Hurigny was formerly known as Uriniacum.

In 1471, the troops of King Louis XI destroyed the fortified house of Salornay, whose artillery had been lent to the town of Mâcon to help resist them.

The poet Alphonse de Lamartine stayed many times at the château, which belonged to his uncle, François Louis de Lamartine de Montculot (1750–1827).

In 1862, a decision was made to build a chapel dedicated to Saint Joseph to the north of the church. This required additional space and led to the relocation of the cemetery.

On November 11, 1900, the narrow-gauge railway line from Mâcon to Fleurville via Lugny was inaugurated. The line operated regular passenger service until 1931.
