This Romanesque church is one of the Romanesque nuggets of Sundgau. Dating from 1144, it is classified as a historical monument. We can appreciate its sober structure which makes it beautiful.

In 1144, Count Frederic 1st of Ferrette founded a convent of Benedictine nuns here, of which the church remains, listed as a historic monument in 1898. Located on a path that led pilgrims to Compostela, it is dedicated to Saint-Jacques the major. The bell tower was only added in 1909.
