Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Sainte-Hélène is a commune in the Saône-et-Loire department in the region of Bourgogne in eastern France. Saône-et-Loire is a French department, named after the Saône and the Loire rivers between which it lies.When it was formed during the French Revolution, as of March 4, 1790 in fulfillment of the law of December 22, 1789, the new department combined parts of the provinces of southern Burgundy and Bresse, uniting lands that had no previous common history nor political unity and which have no true geographical unity. Thus its history is that of Burgundy, and is especially to be found in the local histories of Autun, Mâcon, Chalon-sur-Saône, Charolles and Louhans.
