A "chemin de halage", in German "treidelpfad", which runs alongside the waterway right next to the bed of the river or canal, was an indispensable part of the transport infrastructure in earlier times. Before ships could move using motor power, horses ran along the bank and pulled the ship against the current. This was called "treideln", and that is how the "treidelpfad" got its name. Where these paths directly on the bank have been preserved, they are now popular with hikers and cyclists.

Originally a simple oratory of a pilgrim's house, it became, over time, the main church of Tonnerre. In the 11th century, the Hôtel-Dieu Notre-Dame was a modest house welcoming pilgrims on the route to Saint-Jacques. It has a small chapel dedicated to Mary. Over the centuries, the oratory grew and gained in importance. It became a cure, a parish then a deanery. It was in the 16th and 17th centuries that the monument took on the face we know with its high tower topped with the inscriptions "Jesus Maria Ave Gracia", and the initials CHC, for Charles Henri de Clermont, Count of Tonnerre and great patron.
