The Valley of Gray is a small historical country of Haute-Saône, organized around the town of Gray and the limestone plateaus surrounding it. From ancient times, this territory is structured by Gallo-Roman villaes, Roman roads linking Langres and Besançon, and a network of fertile springs and plateaus. In the Middle Ages, it became a space of powerful seigneuries (Autrey, Champlitte, Gray), ancient parishes and villages set on the edge of the plateau, forming a coherent and very old rural landscape.
The village of Bouhans-et-Feurg has two churches. The oldest church in the Assumption-de-la-Vierge of Fürg has an authentic character. For a town of a few hundred inhabitants, it is a remarkable heritage: a high altar with altarpiece and tabernacle protected under the Historical Monuments, two secondary altarpieces of the XVIIIe century, a painting of the Assumption of the Virgin, statues of Saint Anne and the Virgin of the XVe century, several ancient statues (saint Louis, Saint Nicholas, Virgin with Child), and a polychrome confessional of XVIIIe century.
Today, Bouhans-et-Feurg is part of the parish of Arc‐Autrey‐Champlitte, part of the diocese of Besançon. Occasional Masses according to the parish calendar take place in Saint-Pierre-aux-Liens Church, which dates from the 19th.
