Soit (M,g) une variété lorentzienne analytique réelle de dimension 3 compacte et connexe. Nous démontrons que l’existence d’une orbite ouverte (non vide) du pseudo-groupe des isométries locales implique que la métrique lorentzienne est localement homogène (i.e. le pseudo-groupe des isométries locales de g agit transitivement sur M).
