Parempuyre (10,142 inhabitants in 2021; 2,180 ha) is a commune in the Gironde department.
The place currently called Parempuyre was, in the Gallo-Roman period, the northernmost market place of Burdigala (in the area of the peninsula bounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the west and the Gironde estuary to the east), and was a Roman station). In the centuries following the end of the Roman Empire, the parish of Parempuyre was organized under the patronage of Saint Pierre, one of the first parishes placed under the jurisdiction of the Collegiate Church of Saint-Seurin in Bordeaux. The chapter of Saint-Seurin therefore possessed the tithe of the parish. The territory of Parempuyre was, like most of southern Médoc, in the lordship of Blanquefort, over which its lords exercised their jurisdiction. The strongholds which were there were in the movement of this important castellany.
From the 16th century to the end of the 17th century, the lordship of Lamothe or Lamothe Parempuyre, whose name would end up being confused with that of the parish, belonged successively to the families of Caupène, Alesme and Pichon, through the marriage in 1671 of Benoite d'Alesme with François de Pichon mortar president in the Parliament of Bordeaux, whose members wouldcall themselves barons of Parempuyre. The noble houses of Vallier and Labouret en palud also belonged to the same families.
The habitat is concentrated on the gravelly plateau where the town and the hamlets are located, and it is only gradually from the 16th century that the marshland will be developed following its sanitation.
In the 19th century, the activity of some 800 inhabitants of the town was essentially rural. Cereals are grown there: wheat, rye, millet, corn. The famous artichoke from the neighboring town of Macau is also grown in Parempuyre. And of course the vines producing the finest crus bourgeois.
