Poissy is one of the oldest royal cities of Île-de-France, birthplace of Louis IX of France and Philip III of France, before being supplanted from the 15th century by Saint-Germain-en-Laye. In 1561, it was the site of a fruitless Catholic–Huguenot conference, the Colloquy of Poissy.
The area was known for the early car maker Automobiles Gregoire, and since then a number of companies including Simca and Peugeot, have produced vehicles at the Poissy Plant. From 1961 until 1991 the Simca Poissy engine was made there.
