Archaeological excavations have shown that the valley of Oxhe background, north of the town, was already frequented by the ribbon civilization at the time of Neolithic from .
In Gallo-Roman times, a latifundium with a villa urbana along the causeway connecting Tongeren To Arlon at the place of the current Villers-le-Temple.
In 1091, Gislebert de Duras, count of Clermont, built a priory on his lands of Saint-Symphorien (the current Saint-Séverin). In 1096, he donated half of the priory to theCluny abbey before leaving for the first crusade with permission to settle there. It was between 1136 and 1145 that the Cluniac monks built, with the approval of the prince-bishop of Liège, Alberon II, the current church dedicated, according to the Cluniac tradition, to Saints Peter and Paul.
Around 1260, the knight of theOrder of the Temple, Gérars de Villers, built on, it is believed, the site of the old Roman villa, which will become the most important Commandery in the current province of Liège. In 1312, the order of the Temple was abolished by order of the Pope Clement V. The Knights of theOrder of St. John of Jerusalem take possession of the property of the Templars and settle in Villers-le-Temple until the French Revolution.
