Everything about Gex Ain totally explained
Gex is a
commune in the
department of
Ain in eastern
France. It lies 5 km from the
Swiss border and 16 km from

History
The town gave its name to the
Pays de Gex, at various times under the jurisdiction of France,
Switzerland and the
Duchy of Savoy. Exports significantly to Geneva.
With the
1815 Treaty of Vienna Gex was placed in the Customs region of Switzerland and neutralised. The resolutions regarding the Pays de Gex were annulled by Art 435 of the
Treaty of Versailles. In November
1923 France moved its customs office to Gex, and the matter was brought before the
Permanent Court of International Justice (predecessor of the
International Court of Justice), which decided in favour of Switzerland. A compromise was reached in
1932.
Historically, citizens spoke a dialect of the
Franco-Provençal language.
