brought by the Duke of Normandy upon the Kingdom of France, and devastated and much fought over through the ages, the castle that rose out of it was eventually demolished, but the city remained. It gradually lost its importance and a dynastic feud was the center of which it was dismembered, so that it became a barony in the eighteenth century, although it was far from having the same extent that it did in the thirteenth century.
The city known since the end of the Second World War subsequently went through a fragile revival by taking advantage of its location due to its proximity to Paris, and the employment areas of Chartres and Dreux. It managed to attract some industrial enterprises to retain part of its business while achieving a low but steady demographic development. Already a head of its Canton, belonging to the Drouais region, the city became in 2003 the center of the Community of communes of Thymerais.
