Corbigny is a commune in the Nièvre department in central France.

The city is located next to the Morvan and is one of the five Cities-Doors of Parc naturel régional du Morvan.

History

The city used to be one of the first steps for pilgrims starting from Vézelay on the road to Santiago de Compostela.

On 15 January 1934, a Dewoitine tri-motor commercial airliner, the 'Emeraude' (Emerald), returning from Indochina, crashed into a hillside near Corbigny, killing all ten people aboard, including the director of Air France, Maurice Noguès, and the governor-general of the colony of French Indochina, Pierre Pasquier.[1]

Monuments

The Saint Léonard Abbaye which was built in the 18th century is one of the city's most famous attractions. A festival of classical music takes place in this Abbaye every summer.

Demographics

At the 1999 census, the population was 1709. On 1 January 2006, the estimate was 1681. The residents of Corbigny are known as 'Corbigeois.'
