In the commune of this small, peaceful village, perched on its hill, a tragedy took place during the Second World War. During the debacle in June 1940, the 14th Senegalese rifle regiment resisted the 86th German infantry division. Following the fighting, the German soldiers murdered around thirty captured riflemen. It was also in this village that the 2nd United States Infantry Division was born on October 26, 1917. The unit's symbol is an Indian head and its motto is "second to no one".
