Source-derived summary

Broye-Aubigney-Montseugny (French pronunciation: [bʁwa obiɲɛ mɔ̃søɲi] ) is a commune in the Haute-Saône department in the region of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté in eastern France.

History

It was created in 1973 by the merger of three former communes: Broye-lès-Pesmes, Aubigney, and Montseugny.

Broye-lès-Pesmes has been proposed as the location of Amagetobria, a major settlement of the Sequani tribe in the pre-Roman and Roman era. Up to the 19th century, the town was called Moigte-de-Broie, which was derived from its ancient name.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as commune in Haute-Saône, France. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 25, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q834744. VIAF identifies the subject as 94144648481583611028. Authority coordinates are 47.314, 5.509. 2 of 4 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1973.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
