The Church of the Assumption of Our Lady of Champ-le-Duc is a Romanesque building built in the twelfth century (perhaps in the eleventh century, but without any evidence) on the site of an alleged ninth century villa which is credited with founding the Emperor Charlemagne himself, who had the habit of coming to hunt in the area.

L'église de l'assomption de Notre-Dame de Champ-le-Duc est un édifice de style roman construite au XIIe siècle (peut-être au XIe siècle mais sans aucune preuve) sur le site d'une prétendue villa du IXe siècle dont on attribue la fondation à l'empereur Charlemagne lui-même, qui aurait eu l'habitude de venir chasser dans les environs.
