History

{{more citations needed|date=September 2021}}

Archaeological remains in the area include a Neolithic site as well as a late Iron Age necropolis, perhaps belonging to a Gaulish fortress or protected camp.

The city itself is mentioned for the first time in a 633 AD document.

The Château de Creil is recorded from the 7th century.

There are some traces of a castle in which Charles VI resided during the period of his madness, {{circa}} 1390. Creil played a part of some importance in the wars of the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries.{{cite EB1911|wstitle=Creil |volume=7 |page=402}}
