City of history. The city belonged to the 10th century to the Counts of Champagne and the châtellenie was brought as a dowry by the daughter of Thibaut V to Philippe le Bel. Jean de Dormans, cardinal of Beauvais, founded a college there where education was free before founding in Paris, in 1370, the college of Dormans-Beauvais, ancestor of the Lycée Louis-le-Grand. Battle of Dormans in 1573 that Henri de Guise was wounded in the face, which earned him the nickname of 'Scarred'. The ramparts were dismantled under Louis XIII and the castle almost completely rebuilt. The town was badly damaged during both Battles of the Marne in 1914 and 1918, and again in 1940, birthplace of the architect Ledoux.
