A towpath, or "chemin de halage," which runs alongside the river or canal, was an indispensable part of the transportation infrastructure in earlier times. Before ships could be propelled by motors, horses walked along the bank, pulling the vessel against the current. This was called "treideln," and that's how towpaths got their name, which has been passed down to this day. Where these paths, located directly on the riverbank, have been preserved, they are popular with hikers and cyclists.

The construction of the church dates from the 13th century. The church was extensively restored after the Hundred Years' War and its orientation was changed in the mid-18th century. The building was restored again in the 19th century. During these restorations, the local priest died in 1818. Since a decree of March 27, 1926, the church has been listed as a historical monument. A porch was demolished in the 1970s.
