A short history...
Corgoloin comes from a merovingian property : Godeleni curtis.
The village developed quickly during Capetian Dukes of Burgundy’s reign. During Middle Ages’ wars, the village was pillaged and its administrators were hung.
We can admire in Corgoloin many beautiful properties and buildings : Cussigny (17th and 18th century, Moux (16th century), La Chaume (18th century). All of them have been built on the place of an oldest castle.
Separated between plain and Côte, Corgoloin develops nowadays wine-growing, agriculture and stone quarries activities.
