Sites néolithique, chalcolithique et de la période de Hallstatt. Doit son nom aux moulins à eau situés au 10ème à Yzeure, alors seule ville importante.
Sites Neolithic, Chalcolithic and of the period of Hallstatt. Owes its name in the mills to water situated at 10th in Yzeure, then only important city.
Charte des franchises en 1232. Les ducs de Bourbon y font construire vers 1340 un château pour lequel ils abandonnent leurs résidences de Chantelle et de Bourbon. Bourbon-l'Archambault est supplanté définitivement en tant que capitale du Bourbonnais après le mariage d'Anne de France, fille de Louis XI, avec Pierre II, duc de Bourbon, en 1488. Moulins connaît alors sa grande période d'expansion qui se terminera tragiquement en 1523 avec la défection du connétable de Bourbon. Le Bourbonnais est confisqué et rattaché à la couronne mais Moulins reste la capitale de la province et connaît encore de grands moments : en 1566, ordonnance de Moulins, réorganisant la justice (restera en vigueur jusqu'à la Révolution) ; fin 17ème, introduction de l'industrie de la faïence.
Charter of the exemptions in 1232. The dukes of Bourbon make there construct toward 1340 a castle for which they abandon their residences of Chantelle and Bourbon. Bourbon-l'Archambault is supplanted definitely as capital of the Bourbonnais after the marriage of Anne of France, girl of Louis XI, with Pierre II, duke of Bourbon, in 1488. Moulins knows its big period of expansion that will end tragically in 1523 with the defection of the Bourbon "connetable" then. The Bourbonnais is confiscated and is connected to the crown but Moulins remains the capital of the province and knows again of big moments : in 1566, order of Moulins, reorganizing the justice (will remain in force until the Revolution) ; end 17th, introduction of the industry of the ware.
Spirituellement, Moulins dépendit jusqu'à la Révolution de l'évêque d'Autun et son centre religieux se trouvait à Yzeure. Le premier évêque fut un prêtre assermenté élu en 1791. Patrie du maréchal de Villars, du maréchal de Berwick, de Théodore de Banville.
Spiritually, Moulins depended until the Revolution of the bishop of Autun and its religious center was in Yzeure. The first bishop was a sworn priest elected in 1791. Homeland of the marshal of Villars, of the marshal of Berwick, of Theodore of Banville.
