Brécey’s famous people span 157 years: 2 births from 1737 to 1894

Maxime Fauchon (French politician (1894–1981)) is the best known by our measure: 2 Wikipedia and sister-site articles in different languages. Next come Nicolas de Brecey.

2 people born in Brécey have a French Wikipedia article that confirms the town as their birthplace (and an English one that agrees, when there is one).

Among its famous people, leaders: 2 of the 2. That is 100% of the town’s list, against 24% across French towns.

Nicolas de Brecey, born in 1737. The youngest on the list was born in 1894.

People whose Wikidata birthplace is Brécey itself, matched by its INSEE code (a commune merged into it counts when the dates allow), whose French Wikipedia article agrees, and their English article too when they have one. A hospital or neighbourhood recorded without its commune isn’t matched. People who only lived here, adult performers and people known mainly for crimes aren’t listed.

Their Wikidata birthplace may be a hospital, a neighbourhood or a wider area, another commune, or missing, or their articles may not name a birthplace. We only list people the sources agree on; editing Wikidata or Wikipedia changes this page at the next refresh.
