Nantimont Hamlet
Highlight • Settlement
But more recently, it was in Mageroy that a Gallo-Roman villa was discovered. Occupied between the 1st and the 4th century, it is still being excavated. It will be necessary to wait until 1317 to find the first mention of Nantimont in a text. The latter explains that Messire Jean du Châtelet receives various fiefs from the counts of Chiny to reward his services. In the 17th century, a document provides us with other interesting information: the hamlet has 12 households, belongs to the provostship of Etalle and to the parish of Etalle.
In 1672, Nantimont was set up as a Lordship with high, medium and low justice and a certain communal autonomy for the inhabitants who could finally elect their mayor and their aldermen. In the middle of the 18th century, the seigniory was bought by the governor, who then resold it to the abbey of Orval in 1758. At that time, Nantimont had 9 houses, 16 laborers (women and children not being counted ). In 1823, Nantimont was separated from Etalle to be attached to the parish and the community of Habay-la-Vieille. Since then, Nantimont and Habay-la-Vieille have experienced a similar fate.
Although the section often suffered from its remoteness, it is today a village breathing the tranquility of the Gaume countryside.

Saint-Quirin Church, Buzenol
Highlight • Religious Site
The toponym "Buzenol" could come from the root bus, busem (cow in Celtic) and ol, diminutive of ullus. Buzenol would therefore mean "little cow".

Chantemelle Village Monuments
Highlight • Monument
The monument at the corner of Place de l'Étang and Rue du Sart-Macré, near the school, is quite singular: the base originally included (1921) a sculpted scene depicting the eagle Germanic undermined by the Belgian lion. During the Second World War, a German soldier mutilated the bas-relief, which the inhabitants of Chantemelle preferred to leave as is since then. The attentive observer will easily guess the details of the claws, claws and wings that escaped destruction.
