History

Margny-The-Compiegne is an initially prehistoric site then Gallo-Roman. The origin of the name of Margny is Gallo-Roman, and indicates the field of called Madrinius. The current form of the name is fixed only at the XIXe century by preserving the old French word “” which means: side, side.

The village was born with the foot from a coast, between the chalky “plain”, which culminates to 101 m and the alluvial valley of the Oise, which drops to 33 Mr. the coast of Margny is due to a flexure, lowering of rather brutal axis, which makes plunge chalk of 80 m under Oise to go back to Compiegne before being inserted under the forest. This quite exposed slope, was favourable with the vine, but was replaced at the end of the XIXe century by orchards and gardens. To the foot of the flexure extends the major bed from Oise. The river was spread out there in several arms in the thick alluvia argilo-sand spreaders where the ground water levels in ponds and ponds. There was a large pond known as “of Margny”, located on the site of the park of the town hall, from where the current district of the ponds deserves its name. This prée marshy is always threatened by the floods, those of 1658,1784,1926,1993-94.

Important facts of the Middle Ages The ecclesiastical districts of the old mode preserved delimiting it of the “cities”: Compiegne concerned Soissons but Margny of Beauvais, more precisely of the Benedictine abbey of Saint-Lucien. An iron cross was drawn up in the middle of the old bridge known as of Saint Louis and marked the change of jurisdiction. The old bridge rebuilt by Saint Louis crossed the river since the Gross Tower and was based, Right Bank on a kind of fears, known as boulevard, surrounded by ditches, which dominated prée of Margny. This prée was the theater of many tournaments and tournaments, and festivals of 1200 to 1410. It is on this same place that Jeanne d' Arc was captured in 1430.

Thus head of bridge strengthened in “boulevard”, which protected what was a long time the only permanent passage on the river between Pont-l'Ev4eque cheese and Holy Bridge Maxence, was before a a whole military zone.

The XVIIe-XVIIIe century The construction of the New Bridge in 1733-34, involves the rectification of the roadway of Margny, which then was more easily connected to Compiegne. The disputes were more and more sharp between Compiegne and Margny, which disputed Prée Margny (named small Margny thereafter), which formed a zone where the jurisdictions tangled up whereas its economic importance increased. The integrity of Margny was preserved until 1790, the revolution allowed the seizure of Compiegne on Small Margny.

Apart from the cottage industry, an industry appeared fine XVIIe century with Margny: a manufacture of cloths, street pedlars and cuddly toys, founded by Jacquin. This royal manufacture was installed on the site of the current town hall, but disappeared towards 1770, undoubtedly victim of the treated Eden (free trade with the United Kingdom).

XIXe and XXe century The close connection between the 2 communities involved conflicts. Mistrust large towards Compiegne, was suspected of aimings annexationists. The quarrel burst with the matter of the future station of railroad. Margny complained that the railroad was rather a disadvantage, it wanted to remain a village. Since the installation of the station in 1847, an industrial activity and commercial transformed the village remained until there rural.

The legislative elections of Margny regularly opposed the mayor of Compiegne against a politician of the commune. It was the case of Octave Spoils, mayor of Margny to the 4 consecutive elections of 1902 to 1919. At the time of its administration, it achieves the transformation of Margny by equipping it with the buildings and means with a city. In homage to its qualities of administrator, a monument was dedicated to him in 1928, inside the new town hall.

The SDAU (Town planning and Master development plan) which applies to the common one was installation in 1973 and to leads in 1975 to the development of the POS (Plane of occupation of the Ground) of the commune. The POS defines Margny thus: “quiet, a little rural and pleasant small town with its gardens. ” The revision of the POS, currently baptized RAINED started in 2000, is founded above all on the disappearance of the industrial and economic waste lands but also on the limitation of the economic buildings, as landscape sites and green screens arrange it. The crisis of the local economy, industrial and commercial purely touched the resources of the commune, but the common tent to cure it with the assistance of the ARC (Agglomeration of the Area of Compiegne), ex SIVOM and ex CCRC (the Community of Communes of the area of Compiegne) resulting in 2000.

In 2001, the municipal police delocalizes its buildings to come to move into a new building located in the park of the Town hall. Their neighbors are the house of the young people and associations. In 2006-2007, the current Mayor of Margny, Mr. Bernard HELLAL, develops his commune with the image of one “city in the countryside” to take again his expression.

The shape of the village The village of Margny was initially linear, along the street of the gold Drops prolonged upstream by the lane of the gold Drops. The heart of the village is located in the street of the gold Drops formerly called street of the Church (named according to the church Saint Pierre, demolished). Then the village develops with a crossing of ways: street of the Republic and Which occurred Raymond Poincaré. These 2 ways cut the avenue Octave Spoils transversely, arranged like royal road in 1772-82. From second half of the XIXe century, Margny-The-Compiegne took the aspect of a suburb, but very ventilated with much of brick houses. The construction of the railroad contributed to it for much, reached Margny in 1847. The railway formed a kind of stopping which doubles that natural of Oise.

Today, the street Octave Spoils continues to be the central axis interns with the commune, from which the various districts are irrigated. This street has a role of internal organization of road displacements, cycles and pedestrian. The avenue Octave Spoils thus has the essential functions of centrality, co-education, accessibility of the services and service roads.

But Margny has also an amateur football team which plays in the 1st division in the district of the Oise, which has good players like WARIN Kévin former boarder of the training center of Barcelona between 1996 and 2003.
