| The Valley of Mirville is crossed by a railroad viaduct built in 1847. The viaduct suffered during the Franco-Prussian war of 1870. One of its arches was destroyed and 2 others were damaged in an explosion on Juanary 15, 1871. However, repairs were quickly made. During WWII, it suffered from both German and Allied attacks. |  |

| The cemetery boasts several old tombstones, one from the XIVth century. At the tip of the nave of the church you will see a stone called Stone of the Lepers. Funerals of victims of leprosy were performed in front of this massive cross during outbreaks of the disease. |
