The Latin name "Jaziacum" in Roman times. Long been inhabited by men (it is found an important Merovingian necropolis). Jaulzy has developed on the left bank of the Aisne. The village is divided into two parts; 'Jaulzy down', now the most densely populated area, along the road from Soissons to Compiegne, and 'Jaulzy up' on the side of the valley, where once stood the castle there are still walls that surrounded the old farmyard with two turrets to the west of the 16th century and a curious little 'temple' circular, which the dome is supported by six Ionic columns.

It offers a view of the site extending to Magifique Forest Laigue. The church and cemetery have been fortified to serve as a refuge for the inhabitants of the village.

A small gatehouse on brackets above the portal is also still visible in the western facade. The bell tower at the saddleback roof is located on a side chapel in the northwest of the choir.
