César Allemand

Allemand entered politics during the municipal elections of 11 June 1879, when he became mayor of Riez, holding office until 1901. He then became a general councilor of Basses-Alpes.^[2]

On 4 July 1897 Allemand was elected Senator of Basses-Alpes in a by-election to replace Marius Soustre, who had died. He sat with the Republican Left group. He did not participate in debates, but was a member of various committees.^[2] Allemand was a friend of Joseph Reinach and a supporter of Alfred Dreyfus.^[3] In the 1903 elections for the triennial renewal of the Senate he won only 58 votes against 211 for Louis Andrieux, who was elected. Andrieux's election was invalidated, and he was replaced by Hippolyte Gassier.^[2]

Allemand retired to his family property, the Château de Beauvezer in Allemagne-en-Provence, Basses-Alpes. He died there on 27 January 1918.^[2]
