Its old spelling « Cuisina » (or Quisine) makes us remember the time when the Counts of Chiny settled their kitchen during hunting appointments. Lacuisine is situated along the national road Florenville-Neufchâteau, parallel to the Semois.
On a downstream of the village is the old watermill which has been restored. This watermill, that is still in working order, used to operate a sawmill. Its construction dates from the Austrian time. The weather vane dates from 1770.
