Histoire

Ancienne baronnie.

Le 5 août 1944.

Le 31 juillet 1944, une première charge de la 3^e division blindée américaine du général Rose ne parvient pas à libérer Saint-Pois de l'occupation allemande. Le 5 août, la 4^e division d'infanterie américaine du général Barton libère entièrement Saint-Pois qui résiste à la contre-attaque allemande, jusqu'à l'arrivée, le 7 août de la 2^e division blindée américaine du général E. Brooks qui enfonce le front allemand.

Démographie

L'évolution du nombre d'habitants est connue à travers les recensements de la population effectués dans la commune depuis 1793.
À partir du 21^e siècle, les recensements réels des communes de moins de 10 000 habitants ont lieu tous les cinq ans, contrairement aux autres communes qui ont une enquête par sondage chaque année. En 2020, la commune comptait 480 habitants.
