Fougères, FRANCE: Fougères (Breton: Felger, Gallo: Foujerr) is a commune and a sub-prefecture of the Ille-et-Vilaine department in Brittany in northwestern France. Its inhabitants are called the Fougerais and the Fougeraises. At the 2012 census Fougères had 20,040 inhabitants. The Fougères area comprises approximately 88,000 inhabitants and is currently in a process of growth, unlike the town centre. Fougères is a town on the edge of Brittany, Maine and Normandy and named after a fern (see also fougère), or from \"fous\" which means \"fossé\" [\"gap\"] (in Brittany and Normandy, a gap is a terrace of land formed by the excavations made on each side of the terrace, and serving as a separation between two properties). The creation of Fougères dates back to the Middle Ages. The first mention of the Château de Fougères is found towards the end of the 10th century. At the time, it was a simple wooden fortification located on a rocky ridge, whose position favorably dominated the Nançon (fr) Valley and the surrounding marshes. Fougères was at the crossing of two Roman roads, one from Chartres to Carhaix and the other of Avranches to Nantes. From the 12th century, the population moved away from the shore of the Nançon and the city grew in height, divided into two parishes: Saint-Sulpice for the lower town and Saint-Léonard for the upper town.
