Over the past 50 years, the various archaeological excavations carried out on the site of the Esplanade Saint-Martin have provided information on the origins of the town. Indeed, the site seems to be known since the 19th century as a Gallo-Roman and medieval site. An archaeological survey, undertaken in July 1976 by a team of excavationrs of the region (Alain Dautant, Jean-François Garnier, Yves Marcadal), also showed 3 phases of occupation: the first in the Iron Age (between -800 and the 1st century BC), in the Gallo-Roman period (2nd century BC and 476) and in the Middle Ages.
