The settlement was founded as a suburb of Paris in the 19th century. Bougival is famous for being the site of the Marly Machine (1684-built large hydraulic system in Yvelines) that in the 17th century supplied all the water for Versailles Palace's fountains. The complex apparatus consisted of 14 waterwheels on the Seine (approx 38 ft/11,5 m in diameter) which in turn powered 250+ pumps. The original Marly Machine was used until 1817, in 1858 it was replaced with another system and in 1963 was inaugurated an electrical generator for the pumps.
