Geography


The village of Saint-Germain-Lembron is located in an alluvial basin crossed by a small stream : the Lembronnais. That's what it Lembron from the suffix added to the name of Saint-Germain.

The heart of the village is situated off the highway A75 near the river Couze Ardes which flows into the Allier some two kilometers downstream on the territory of the neighboring town of Breuil-sur-Couze.


History


The history of Saint-Germain-Lembron dates back to Gallo-Roman times when a town designated as the Liziniat (Liziniacus) appearing in some ancient writings, the latter being located on-site or near the present village. One of three churches dedicated to St. Germain was built here and, the town was home to a community of canons from the second half of the 10th century , finally gave its name to the town, as already attested to the Merovingian vicus.

From the 14th century , Saint-Germain-Lembron ranks among the thirteen good towns of Lower Auvergne.
