Cessières was a small village, also known as a commune, located in northern France. It was part of the Aisne department in the Hauts-de-France region.

On January 1, 2019, Cessières joined with another nearby village called Suzy. Together, they formed a new, larger commune known as Cessières-Suzy. This means Cessières is no longer a separate commune on its own.

Cessières was a quiet place, typical of many small French villages. It had its own town hall, which is shown in the picture. This building was the center for local government and community activities.

Village Population Over Time

The number of people living in Cessières changed over the years. Like many small villages, its population saw ups and downs.

  • In 1962, about 255 people lived there.
  • By 1990, the population had grown to 416 residents.
  • In 2008, there were around 448 people.
  • Just before it merged in 2019, the population was about 474 people.

This shows that Cessières slowly grew bigger over several decades before it became part of Cessières-Suzy.
