Geography
The commune is situated at the junction of the D901 and D183 roads at an ancient crossing point of the Somme River, some 7 miles (11 km) southeast of Abbeville.
Places of interest
The Château or Castle originally has been the site of numerous historical visitors including Cardinal Richelieu since its rebuilding after being destroyed during the hundred years war.
An association was set up in 2007 to persuade the owners to save this historic monument. On August 13th 2012 the Château was severely damaged by fire, halting a planned community renovation and restoration program.
