In the 10th century the royal family of [[Kingdom of Burgundy-Arles|Burgundy]] granted their vineyards at Pully to [[Payerne Priory]].  The priory retained this land in Pully until 1536.  In 1079, Bishop Burkhard of Oltigen received some property from the [[Holy Roman Emperor|Emperor]] in Pully.  This land had previously belonged to Rudolf of Swabia.  From then on, the [[Bishop of Lausanne]] possessed the [[jurisdiction]] right over the [[bailiwick]] of Pully.  The Bishop first granted the bailiwick to the Lords of Faucigny, then in 1276 to the de Thoire-Villars family.  Two officers, the ''Sautier'' or ''Weibel'' and the [[Seneschal]], were responsible for the judiciary.  The Counts of Geneva, the Geneva-Lullin family, were the Seneschals until 1536 and were practically the rulers of Pully.  A number of other religious and secular leaders owned land or rights in the village.  Until 1555, the Counts of Gruyère were one of the largest landowners in the area.  In 1509, [[Bern]] and [[Fribourg]] mediated between the Count of Gruyere and the citizens of Pully.  The market buildings in Pully were used until at least 1558.<ref name=HDS_MA>{{HDS|2412<!--Section 1-2-->|Medieval to modern Pully}}</ref>

The municipality began to become a partly independent town in the 13th century and received its charter ({{lang|fr|plaict général}}) in 1368.  The town was administered by a twelve-member council until 1719, when it became an eleven-member group.  The council was led by a [[knight banneret]].
