History

In Gallo-Roman times, a villa was built near an older temple, of which only traces remain.[4]

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 abandonment at the end of 2012 following its bankruptcy.[5] In January 2021, a dead body was found in the château, just before it found a new owner in March 2021.[6][7]
