Before the Treaty of Paris, which followed the conclusion of the Second World War, La Brigue was part of the province of Cuneo with the name of Briga Marittima. After 12 February 1947, the date of the treaty, it was ceded together with the Morignolo fraction from Italy to France.

Briga Marittima or better, Briga bassa. It was Italian and formed a single municipality with Briga Alta which is still Italian. The Brigasca community had a completely independent indigenous culture and the municipal territory extended up to Gouta. A complicated territory rich in history!

Small community in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region with narrow, cozy streets, embedded in the Maritime Alps. Popularly chosen as a stage of a western alpine cross by bike. From here it is not far to the destination in Ventimiglia!
