Oignies
Oignies is a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in the Nord-Pas-de-Calais region of France.
Geography
Oignies is a former coalmining town, nowadays a light industrial town, 10 miles (16 km) northeast of Lens, at the junction of the D46 and the D160 roads. The A1 autoroute passes through the commune, alongside a wooded and lake-filled parkland area.
History
Ancient times
The town of Oignies seems to have been inhabited since early Christian times. Then it was known as Ongniacume.
Coal is discovered
In the grounds of the Château of Mme De Clercq on 7 June 1842 an Engineer, Monsieur Mulot, discovered the presence of coal, an economic godsend for the region which then developed a huge mining industry. This was the first discovery of coal in the region.
The two world wars
During The First World War, the town was occupied by the Germans. Shortly before their retreat from the territory in October 1918 they destroyed the town and coal mines.
Between 28 May 1940 and 2 September 1944, the town was once again occupied by the troops of Nazi Germany. Shortly after they arrived the occupying forces burned 380 houses and killed 80 civilians in revenge for the fierce resistance they met on the bridge of the Battery.

Hoy Me Voy
by: JuanesLlorarás, llorarás cuando se valla el sol
Y yo con él, dejando tu vida sola
Te dirán, te dirán las flores del jardÃn
Cuánto te amé y cuánto soñé tu luz
Devuélveme ese corazón
Que tú no supiste valorar lo que te daba yo, de verdad
Devuélvelo, devuélvelo, no es tuyo, no
Ya se acabó el tiempo en que tú brillabas
Devuélveme ese corazón
Que tú no supiste valorar lo que en verdad te daba yo
Oh oh oh⦠oh ohâ¦
Hoy me voy, pero no
No se va la herida grande que me queda
Por amarte, por mi culpa
Por los besos que en el mar te di
Corazón me sobró y coraje me faltó para dejarte
Tengo miedo de no olvidarte
Y por eso de ti me despido
Hoy me voy, hoy me voyâ¦
Devuélveme ese corazón
Que tú no supiste valorar lo que en verdad te daba yo
Oh oh oh⦠oh ohâ¦
Hoy me voy, pero no
No se va la herida grande que me queda
Por amarte, por mi culpa
Por los besos que en el mar te di
Corazón me sobró y coraje me faltó para dejarte
Tengo miedo de no olvidarte
Y por eso de ti me despido
Hoy me voy, pero no
No se va la herida grande que me queda
Por amarte, por mi culpa
Por los besos que en el mar te di
Corazón me sobró y coraje me faltó para dejarte
Tengo miedo de no olvidarte
Y por eso de ti me despido
Hoy me voy, hoy me voyâ¦
Hoy me voy
De ti me despido
