Annot is a French commune in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of southeastern France.

The inhabitants of the commune are known as Annotains or Annotaines^[1]

The commune has been awarded one flower by the National Council of Towns and Villages in Bloom in the Competition of cities and villages in Bloom.^[2]

Geography

Annot is located some 80 km north-west of Nice, 15 km east of Saint-Andre-les-Alpes, and 13 km west of Puget-Theniers. Access to the commune is by National Road N202 from Saint-Andre-les-Alpes to Puget-Theniers which passes through the south of the commune. Access to the village is by road D908 running north off the N202 and continuing north to Le Fugeret.^[3] There are two railway stations in the commune: Scaffarels station, an optional stop built on a masonry embankment; and Annot Railway Station near the village. They are both served by the line from Nice to Digne.^[4]

The hamlet of Les Scaffarels is south-east of the village and there is also the hamlet of Rouaine on the N202 in the south. The commune is mountainous and heavily forested. The forests occupy 2,712 hectares of the commune.^[5]

The Galange river forms most of the southern border of the commune while the Vaire flows from north to south past the village gathering many tributaries through the commune. The Beite river joins the Vaire at the village while the Canal des Gastres flows south-east near the village then curves north to join the Coulomp just north-east of the commune.

Geology

The village is located within a resurgence of sandstone amidst limestone mountains at 680 m altitude. This resurgence is up to 250m thick. The rocky ridge overlooking the village is formed of sandstone. The debris that has formed below in picturesque shapes with names such as: the Dent du Diable (Tooth of the Devil), the Chambre du Roi (King's Chamber), the défilé des Garambes (Defile of Garambes), the Chameau des lumières (Camelback of lights), and the rocks of the Cent-Marches (Hundred Steps). It has been classed as a natural site since 1920.^[6] Certain houses have been built directly against a rock fallen from the crag: the rock is bigger than a house. The acidic soils on the left bank of the Vaïre allow for chestnut growing.

The centre of the town (Saint-Jean-Baptiste Church, formerly Saint-Pons) has been built on a rocky outcrop between the Vaïre and Beïte rivers.

High points

• Pelloussis Rock (1,340 m)
• Col de L'Iscle (1,384 m)
• on the same ridge west of the village: Le Roncheret (1,617 m), Le Puel (1,532 m), La Colle Durand (1,638 m), the Rocks of Rouaine (1,438 m)

Natural and technological risks

None of the 200 communes of the department is in a no seismic risk zone. The Canton of Annot is in zone 1b (low risk) according to the deterministic classification of 1991 based on the historical seismic data^[7] and in zone 4 (medium risk) according to the probabilistic classification EC8 of 2011.^[7] The town of Annot is also exposed to three other natural hazards:^[8]

• forest fire
• flooding (in the valley of the Vaïre)
• landslide

The commune of Annot is also exposed to a risk of technological origin: the transport of dangerous goods by road.^[7] The N202 national road can be traveled by carriers of dangerous goods.^[7]

The foreseeable natural risk prevention plan (PPR) of the commune was approved in 1990 for flood risk, landslide, and earthquake^[7] but a new one was requested in 2003 and a DICRIM has existed since 2011.^[9]

The town has had several natural disasters from flooding and mudslides in 1994^[8] and an earthquake powerfully felt in the town on 17 February 1947 whose epicentre was located in the Piedmont.^[10]

Toponymy

The locality appears for the first time in charters of 1042 as Anoth when its Lord, Ermerincus of Anoth, gave it to the Abbey of Saint Victor, Marseille. The name perhaps comes from the Gallic ana plus the Latin suffix ottum designating a small marsh.^[11][12] Charles Rostaing thought that the name Ana designated it as an older town which preceded the upper town called Sigumanna.^[13] According to Daniel Thiery, the name Sigumanna, cited in the same document as Annot, means the territory rather than a place or a specific village and this name of the territory is probably derived from the name of pre-Roman people who occupied the valley.^[14]

The commune name is Anòt in Provençal.

The name of the hamlet of Rouaine comes from the Roman name *Rugius with the suffix -ane indicating the domain of Rugius.^[15]

History

Antiquity

The name of the people settled in the valley on the arrival of the Romans is not certain, but it may be the Nemeturii. An oppidum was located at a place called Vers-la-Ville.^[16]

Middle Ages

The original village was probably in the middle of "Grès d'Annot" (Annot sandstone). The houses were mostly wooden (locations for beams are visible in the rocks that the houses backed on to) and more than one floor. The path called "Vers-la-Ville" leading to a chapel is certainly a testimony to its past existence. On this path there is a large sandstone rock ("the rock of 100 steps") on which a staircase is carved. Around the rock's summit there are holes dug to accommodate wooden beams.

Subsequently the village was built between the Vaïre and Beite rivers and was fortified around the church of Saint-Pons in 1042.^[17] The Lord was the Abbey of Saint Victor, Marseille, who received very many gifts.^[14] The Abbey shared some rights with the Order of the Temple.^[18][19] After the dissolution of the Order of the Temple, its property at Fugeret and Annot passed to the Abbey Saint-Pons of Nice.^[14]

The lordship then passed to the counts of Provence.^[18] The death of Queen Joanna I created a succession crisis for the head of the County of Provence. The towns of the Union of Aix (1382-1387) supported Charles de Duras against Louis I of Anjou. The Annot community supported Duras until 1386 then switched sides to join the Angevins through patient negotiations by Marie de Blois, widow of Louis I and regent for their son Louis II. The surrender of Aix could also have played a role in the turnaround of the community.^[20]

A Fair was established in 1388 by Marie de Blois which was maintained until the end of the Ancien Régime.^[17][21][22] She also authorised a weekly market.^[23] Finally in the 15th and 16th centuries it was the Saint-Pons family who were the Lords.^[18]

Modern Times

During the Wars of religion the city was attacked by the Protestants in 1574^[24] commanded by the Baron of l'Isle.^[25] Annot was spared the plague epidemics of 1626 and 1670 which nevertheless affected Castellane and Entrevaux.^[26]

In May 1672 the entire population of the village, led by the notaries and the apothecary, repulsed the new vicar who had been imposed by the diocese and not from the country.^[27]

At the end of the 17th century the village was gradually emerging from isolation: the Bishop of Entrevaux, Ithier, established a fortnightly postal service between Entrevaux and Aix by mules, which also served Annot and Guillaumes.^[28][29] The culture of Roman law, which requires frequent use of a notary, was very much alive: thus four notaries were established in Annot in 1680.^[28] In the 18th century a viguerie was installed at Annot which also served the communities of Braux, La Colle, Fugeret, Méailles, Argenton, Peyresc, and Saint-Benoît.^[23]

In June 1704, as part of the War of the Spanish Succession, a communal militia was raised at Ubraye and Annot. They were repulsed by the Savoyards in the Valley of Marguery, and many residents of both communities were taken prisoner. The ransom for those from Annot amounted to 1,200 livres.^[30]

The French Revolution

The community was fully part of the movement of the French Revolution. After sending their complaints in 1789, they planted a tree of liberty in the Place Revelly.^[31] The patriotic society of the commune was created during the summer of 1792:^[32] it was called the Club of Friends of the Revolution.^[31]

19th and 20th centuries

In the 19th century the commune was experiencing some industrial development through the spinning and weaving of wool on the model of the Honnorat factory in Saint-André-de-Méouilles.^[33] The Moulard factory opened in the early 1830s and the Roux factory in 1836 (but it disappeared before 1843^[34]). In 1856 two factories employed 40 workers.^[35]

The railway arrived at Annot in 1908 with the opening of the penultimate section of the line from Nice to Digne.^[36] The Colle tunnel was completed in 1903 and the entire line between Nice and Digne was opened from 5 to 7 August 1911 in the presence of Victor Augagneur, Minister of Public Works.^[37]

During the First World War soldiers were assigned to Annot to defend the railway lines for Railways of Provence.

The doctor from Annot belonged to the Milice. His father was shot on 6 August 1944 by the Franc Tireurs Partisans from the 11th company.^[38]

Until the middle of the 20th century there was a vineyard in Annot whose production was consumed locally and was exported. There remains nothing now.^[39]

21st century

On 9 February 2014, a rock tumbled down a mountainside and derailed a train on the Chemins de Fer de Provence near Annot, killing two passengers.

Heraldry

The town of Annot used at least two different shields, both making reference to chestnuts. The current arms of Annot are the second described below without picture.

These arms. are not dated. It is possible that they are the oldest in the community. Blazon: Azure, Fess of Argent charged with the word ANNOT in Roman capitals in Sable, in chief two chestnut branches of Or posed saltirewise and in base a fleur-de-lise the same.[40]

These arms existed in 1648[41] Blazon: Argent, a chestnut tree Vert charged with two hedgehogs of Or and with three fleurs-de-lis the same in base, 2 and 1.[42]

• The Bridge over the Vaïre is 34 metres long^[70][71] and 3.5 metres wide. It succeeded another bridge built in 1676. The community of Annot first built it with stone piers^[70] by the master masons François Richard, Louis Borrely, and Louis Fabre.^[71] These piers are protected by strong front and rear Starlings with handrails provided on top of the starlings. On these piles a wooden deck was built^[70] which allowed rapid commissioning in 1682.^[71] The wooden deck was replaced by a stone deck at the beginning of the 18th century. It was the object of repair works in 1777. In 1932 the square in the village was enlarged and the two main arches were sealed.

Notes

1. ↑ At the beginning of the 21st century, the methods of identification have been modified by Law No. 2002-276 of 27 February 2002, the so-called "law of local democracy" and in particular Title V "census operations" allows, after a transitional period running from 2004 to 2008, the annual publication of the legal population of the different French administrative districts. For communes with a population greater than 10,000 inhabitants, a sample survey is conducted annually, the entire territory of these communes is taken into account at the end of the period of five years. The first "legal population" after 1999 under this new law came into force in 1 January 2009 and was based on the census of 2006.
