History

In the 11th century, Duke Godfrey III of the House of Ardenne–Verdun built a castle on the hill, which was expanded in 1402 with a fortified surrounding wall. Henri, Duke of Bouillon, seized control of the fortress in 1592. The castle was demolished in August 1642, as were many fortified locations in Lorraine, on the order of King Louis XIII of France. In 1648, Anne of Austria, Louis' widow, gave control of the town to Louis, Grand Condé. The upper town was heavily damaged in the fighting of World War I.
