Between the 14th and 16th centuries, a climate of insecurity reigned on the banks of the Moselle and the Seille due to the many conflicts between the Republic of Metz and the Duchies of Lorraine and Bar, each of which tried to claim this rich land for its own. At the centre of old winegrowing villages clinging to the hillsides, fortified churches that were used as defensive structures bear witness to the insecurity of bygone days. The church in Sillegny is an example of this: Erected in the 15th century, it contains some remarkable frescoes, perfectly preserved. This circuit at the gates of Metz, between the slopes of the Moselle and the valley of the Seille, is a skilful blend of history, the local area and modernity.

Issues related to the presence of one of the finest vineyards in the sector caused envy to the Carolingian period. It was decided at the Messina yard to give the villa in Saint-Pierre-aux-Nonnains. from private property, Bayoncourt became Bayonville when the ban was given to the clergy. Saint-Gorgon Gorze retained property in the communal territory, and the appointment of a High-Lorraine Duke at the end of the tenth century was reflected in the amputation of a "fine piece" of local vineyards in favor of the monks of Belgian abbey of Orval. And, once the duke confessed St. Peter in Nonnains, was built on land of this abbey fortress of Prény, part of the village depended directly. This property of complexity because of the aster St. Julien a special case of Val Mad. Classic Middle Ages, aster took the form of madin model, but with the originality to have at the end of the right wing, a stately house that local tradition called it the "castle with three towers ". The habitat was initially built around the vineyard and the aster. Around the church, if the side cemetery disappeared, homes and houses are still there on more than half of the "horseshoe". In 1826, the bell tower was still equipped with a hoarding, then removed for run down and replaced by the "floor of the belfry" covered slate.

Mardigny church dates back to the 12th century, but was extensively modified in the 19th century. The original Romanesque bell tower and narthex were listed in July 1997. Set back from the village, it dominates it like many other Romanesque churches in Lorraine. For many years, it was an annex of the Lorry parish church. Until the French Revolution, therefore, it was not possible to celebrate baptisms, marriages or funerals here. Originally, it was a single-nave church, with the choir facing east. The church was entered through a door in the south wall, opening onto a narthex. This narthex, or avant-nef, was separated from the nave by three arches, still visible today. The central arch rests on two round pillars with cubic capitals and claw bases, known to have been used in Lorraine and Alsace in the early 12th century. The central square of the narthex, bordered by these two columns and cross-vaulted, supports the bell tower, which is steeply inclined to the west despite a powerful buttress. It is now used as a sacristy.
