The little village was the scene of the September 1926 meeting between Aristide Briand of France and Gustav Stresemann of Germany. During the meeting the two discussed proposals for finally settling the various claims from the First World War, and their common interest in the then-fashionable paneuropean ideas. Ultimately, however, the meeting came to be a missed chance on the road to European integration, as neither statesman could carry domestic opinion with them on these issues.

gollark: Also, I've heard GPS will lose accuracy within a few months if there's nobody maintaining it, though you could compensate for this if you had a point with a fixed known location and probably GPS expert.
gollark: <@249224113095180289> You can get maps apps which download from openstreetmap ot something.
gollark: Fun fact: if you just train a *person* to do a task, you're technically "training a neural network" to do it!
