“There, where the river has lively waves, so that anyone who passes by on the road looks on with joy, there the gentle shape of the mountain rises and the vineyard rises high. The steps go down high beneath the vines, where the fruit tree stands in bloom above, and the scent lingers on the wild hedges, where the hidden violets sprout. But water trickles down, and a gentle rushing can be heard there all day long; but the places in the area rest and are silent through the afternoon.” (Friedrich Hölderlin, 1770 – 1843)

It can be assumed that in Roman times there was a ford through the Moselle at the site of today's town, through which wagons could drive when the water level was low. This ford was dedicated to Mercurius Bigontius, a local deity, from which the name Porto Pigontio was derived, which gradually became Piesport. A shrine was also dedicated to Bigontius, which stood on the northern, left-hand bank on the mountain slope and which is now only remembered by the chapel house, which is also popularly known as Michelskirch (♁Lage→). In Christian times it was replaced by a church dedicated to the Archangel Michael, which was attested in 1350 as the matrix ecclesia (“mother church”). Because of the long and arduous journey to the parish of Piesport on the banks of the Moselle, a new church was finally built, today's parish church of St. Michael.
