However, the historic centre developed under the impetus of the bishops of Metz, who settled in the town around 980. This neighbourhood also bears witness to the lives of the canonesses who occupied beautiful mansions around the basilica between the 13th century and the Revolution. Natural resources (water and timber) fostered the emergence of major industries such as paper and earthenware, followed by textiles.
