Agey (Шаблон:IPA-fr) is a commune in the Côte-d'Or department in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of eastern France.

The inhabitants of the commune are known as Ageysiens or Ageysiennes

Geography

Agey is located some 20 km west of Dijon and 15 km east of Pouilly-en-Auxois. The A38 autoroute passes through the northern edge of the commune from east to west but has no exit. Access to the commune is via the D905 from Sombernon in the west which passes east parallel to and near the A38 continuing to Pont-de-Pany. From the D905 the D9G goes south to the village and continues south to Gissey-sur-Ouche. The D108 comes from Remilly-en-Montagne in the west through the heart of the commune and the village and continues east to Sainte-Marie-sur-Ouche. The commune is heavily forested in the south, north-east and to a lesser extent in the east. About 60% of the commune is farmland.

The Sirene river passes through the commune from west to east following a similar course to the D108 and joins the Ouche river just east of the commune.

Geology

"There are stones with fossil starfish preserved in limestone ash. When broken in two it reveals the relief of a part with five well-preserved arms. There is a type of stone called burgundy marble, composed essentially of oolites of an earthy gray colour with shells from stony corals as well as oolite marble of an earthy yellow with white dots and white lines due to portions of stone embedded with marine palm leaves and entroques"

History

A street in Agey

According to Claude Courtépée the name comes from Ageya or Agia with the final form of the name being adopted in 1574. The village is located along two Roman roads. The Venus Vitrix was discovered by Dufour in 1924 and excavations were carried out under Mont Rond. A second Roman way was discovered between Châteauneuf and Malain. The discovery of the first Roman road was due to Father Chaume. It went from the Mountain of Veluze northwards towards Prâlon and Malain.
