Tips from the Community
Author, History and Cultures of Antiquity and the Middle Ages (EA1132 / HISCANT-MA) - University of Lorraine. Site Description Until the end of the 14th century, Sampigny was part of the parish of Sainte-Lucie, the center of a village of the same name, located a few hundred meters southwest of the fortress. Since the 13th century, the fortress had had a castle chapel dedicated to Saint Peter, which was elevated to the rank of parish church in 1386. On this occasion, this "lower" church, so named in relation to the Sainte-Lucie church located on a hilltop, likely underwent some modifications. It was enlarged in the early 16th century and its bell tower was raised. Almost square in plan, it was further enlarged in 1746 with the addition of two sacristies. It then changed its name, taking up that of the original parish whose church had been abandoned to a community of Minim fathers in 1625.

The old washhouse harks back to a bygone era when washing was laborious. Imagine how people worked hard to get their laundry clean. The old walls tell stories of busy hands and the scent of soap. It is a historic place that reminds us of the past and teaches us to appreciate today's conveniences. May it continue to be preserved.

Sampigny is located between Commerce and Saint-Mihiel at an altitude of between 221 and 350 m. In the municipal area there is a museum worth seeing and attractions such as a historical monument. The heart of the village of Sampigny has important heritage related to water. It consists of three washhouses and a gayer. One of them, located on Rue Abbé Laurent, is special because its impluvium frame allows the collection of rainwater in its basin.
