In Gallo-Roman times, a villa was built near an older temple, of which only traces remain.[3]

Heritage

  • Saint-Denis church
  • Château de Malaisy: it was a luxurious hotel with a restaurant, a swimming pool and a large reception room, before its abandon in the end of 2012 following its bankruptcy.[4] In January 2021, a dead body was found in the château, just before it finds a new owner in March 2021.[5][6]
