History
[edit]As with many towns in this part of France, World War I saw the place reduced to rubble. A Parisian architect, Jacques Debat-Ponsan, was employed to design and reconstruct the town's public buildings.
- Reconstruction of the school and Mayor's office – accomplished in 1927
- Reconstruction of the church achieved in 1920
- Other reconstructions. A certain number of homes, judging by their style, were rebuilt by the same architect.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
