The municipality of Alle can look back on a very long tradition of settlement. Archaeological excavations in the Noire Bois forest in the south-west of Alle have unearthed finds from settlements that were inhabited around 2300 BC and during the La Tène period (around 400 BC). In Roman times an important road ran through Alle.

The place is first mentioned in 1136 as Alla ; the name corresponds to that of the river Allaine , which joins from several source brooks just outside the village , which in German was formerly also called Hall . In 1271 the place came to the duchy of Basel for the first time and subsequently shared the fate of the Ajoie. In the 16th century, Alle became the capital of one of the five dairy farms in the Ajoie. The village was badly affected in the Thirty Years War . From 1730 to 1740 it was the meeting place for the farmers who repeatedly revolted against the authorities. From 1793 to 1815 Alle belonged to France and was initially part of the Département du Mont-Terrible , from 1800 connected to the Département Haut-Rhin . By decision of the Congress of Vienna , the place came to the canton of Bern in 1815 and on January 1, 1979 to the newly founded canton of Jura.

Attractions

The village church of Saint-Jean-Baptiste with a late medieval bell tower stands at a slightly elevated point. This was retained during the renovation in 1951-53. Typical rows of houses from the 18th and 19th centuries have been preserved along the Allaine and Cornol brooks.
