In the 17th century, it was Simon de Marais, general administrator of the Prince-Bishop of Liège, who acquired 20 bonnies of land in this place and gave it his name.
The Haut Marais castle was built in the style of Louis XV and is flanked by a tower comparable to a bulbous bell tower.
In the 17th century, the isolated muddy plateau created a feeling of insecurity among the population. It is in this context that the saying should be understood: "In Haut-Maret, the Macrâles dance" (*witches)

Jean Giel, son-in-law of Simon de Maret (General Administrator of the Principality of Liège), once lived in the castle.
In earlier times, when superstition was still commonplace, the isolated muddy plateau created a feeling of insecurity among the population. This gave rise to a popular saying: "In Haut-Marais, the Macrâles (*witches) dance"
