History

A manor was built at the end of the XV century by Guillaume de Mallevouë, knight and lord of the manors of Saint-Germain and Notre-Dame-d'Aulnay. All that is left is the lodge and a bartizan. The majority of the manor was destroyed by the French Catholic League in 1589 and was replaced by a half-timbered building.[1].

In 1822, Saint-Germain-d'Aunay (377 inhabitants in 1821)[2] absorbed Notre-Dame-d'Aunay (123 inhabitants)[3], further to its south. The Cassini map situates the former parish in the lieu-dit of Aunay actuel.[4]
