Lieux et monuments

The Saint Médard church, with stall and tomb of the Counts de Joyeuse (17th century). The stalls and the drum of the main door come from the Abbey of Mouzon, following its dismantling with the revolution. The castle was built by the family de Merry during the 16th century and destroyed by fire in 1834. The porch called Justice door, had been built in 1617 in a typical Louis the 13th style with stones and bricks.
