Saint-Sulpice (French pronunciation: [sɛ̃ sylpis] ⓘ; Berrichon: Saint-Spi) is a commune in the Nièvre department in central France.[3]

History

The Romans built the Roman road from Nevers to Alluy, of which only a few sections remain towards Sury in Saint-Jean-aux-Amognes and the place called the Forest in the town.

During the revolutionary period of the National Convention (1792–1795), the town bore the name of Roche-la-Montagne.
