History[edit]

The arrondissement of Montmorillon was created in 1800.[4] At the January 2017 reorganisation of the arrondissements of Vienne, it lost one commune to the arrondissement of Châtellerault and four communes to the arrondissement of Poitiers.[5]

As a result of the reorganisation of the cantons of France which came into effect in 2015, the borders of the cantons are no longer related to the borders of the arrondissements. The cantons of the arrondissement of Montmorillon were, as of January 2015:[6]

  1. Availles-Limouzine
  2. Charroux
  3. Chauvigny
  4. Civray
  5. Couhé
  6. Gençay
  7. L'Isle-Jourdain
  8. Lussac-les-Châteaux
  9. Montmorillon
  10. Saint-Savin
  11. La Trimouille
