History

A number of Roman remains have been discovered nearby, including a fort and medals showing Emperors Marcus Aurelius and his son Commodus. It was formerly the site of a Benedictine abbey founded by Bertha of Avenay at the end of the sixth century CE, later destroyed during the French Revolution.[3] One of the most prestigious religious institutions in Champagne, it became so popular in the 12th century that limits were placed on the number of nuns accepted.[4]
