History

Known as Tanes in 1128, because of the tanneries in the area, it became known as Thannes then Thannes-Thennes in 1507.
The history of Thennes has always been closely linked with that of the neighbouring commune of Berteaucourt-les-Thennes.
From 780, Thennes was the property of the abbey at Corbie, later, as a fiefdom, it passed to the seigneurs of Boves, before returning to Corbie in the 13th century.
Thennes has seen more than its fair share of war:

  • During the 16th century against the Spanish, particularly with the siege of Corbie in 1636. Some boatmen of Thennes and Castel [fr] burned the Spanish supplies destined for their troops outside Corbie. Louis XIII subsequently exempted them and their descendants from all taxes.
  • During the Napoleonic wars of 1814–1815, Cossacks were seen in the commune.
  • The Franco-Prussian War of 1870, saw the town very tested. Battles at nearby Mézières and Cachy saw two local men die, of the 22 men who fought.
  • During the First World War, being so close to the front line meant the town was all but destroyed.
