Description by the author

Chastrès blev, ligesom mange landsbyer i området, beboet i romertiden. Sletten, der strækker sig mod Thy-le-Château, hvor den gallo-romerske villa fra Gau lå, blev krydset af den romerske vej mellem Bavai og Trier. Gåturen fører dig gennem markerne mod kapellet ‘Notre-Dame des Affligés’ i den lille by ‘les Splingues’. Man bad jomfruen om hjælp mod hovedpine, og efter bønnen kastede kvinderne en af deres hårnåle på jorden ifølge skikken. En anden version siger, at nålene (eller épingles, deraf navnet) blev kastet af piger, der håbede på at gifte sig samme år. Dette højdepunktspunkt giver en smuk udsigt over området. Gåturen fortsætter til en grotte, der er helliget Notre-Dame de Lourdes. Grotte ligger i en park og er 13 meter dyb og 11 meter bred.
