History
 | This section does not cite any sources. (February 2007) |
In September 1432, during the Hundred Years' War, the routiers of Rodrigo de Villandrando, in the pay of Georges de la Trémoille, held Les Ponts-de-Cé against the assaults of Jean de Bueil.
On 7 August 1620, the Battle of Ponts-de-Cé definitively ended a civil war, waged by Marie de Médicis. Her troops were defeated by her son, the French King Louis XIII.
This short rebellion, subdued easily by the King's troops, is known in France under the name of "Drôlerie des Ponts-de-Cé" (Les Ponts-de-Cé's joke).
Names
In the past, Les Ponts-de-Cé had known many different names, which are :
- Castro-Seio (889)
- Pon Sigei (1009)
- In Saiaco (1036)
- Saiacus (1090)
- Seium (1104)
- Pons Sagei (1115)
- Pons Sagii (1148)
- Pons Saeii (1291)
- Le Pont de Sae (1293)
- Les Ponts de See (1529)
Indeed, the city has the characteristic of being spanned by many bridges which connect the various zones and roads of the city between them. This is also why the French meaning could be translated by "Cé's bridges".
