History

From the 4th century AD, barbarians swept into the Gallic Empire. In the 5th century, the Germanic peoples and Burgundians settled in the area. The town owes its name to these people: the pronunciation in Germanic gave "Burgundiaca" meaning "field of the Burgundians."

Sites and Monuments

  • The Church of Our Lady of Bourgougnague (Église Notre-Dame de Bourgougnague) from the 13th century. The choir was painted before World War II by the Italian painter Giovanni Masutti, from Stevana in the Treviso region.
