The commune was created in 1974 by the merger of three former communes: Hédé, Bazouges-sous-Hédé and Saint-Symphorien.[4] On 1 January 2008, the village of Saint-Symphorien was separated from the commune, and given the status of commune in its own right.[5] Prior to 22 March 2011, the commune was called Hédé.[6]
It is twinned with the village of Wortham in Suffolk, England.
