SAINT HELENA'S CHAPEL
Read moreLegend tells that St. Helena would have stayed on the hill of Hérapel around 293, during which the Romans took part in the places. Once gone, the place was feared for a long time, because of the pagan spirit that existed there. Next to the chapel, oral stories evoke the existence of a niche carved in the rock. It would have sheltered a colossal St. Helena statue in person. Today (and if you think about the inhabitants!), it would still be buried somewhere on the strange Colline Hill… But history does not stop there. Over the centuries, the oratory attracted many pélèrins, but also at the beginning of the twentieth century, at the dawn of the First World War. The chapel known for many phases, alternating destruction and reconstruction. Only its natural environment (a rock-dominated cave) and its so-called miraculous source were preserved. In ancient times, but also today, this water net would have curative vertues, especially in healing of pathologies reaching the eyes (blindness) and hair (baldness). Caution, however, is not potable water.

WHEAT STREET
Read moreLocated at the back of the large covered market in Metz, the rue au Blé, although close and discreet, is rich in history. Indeed, its proximity to the city's main market is already testimony to its commercial function. As its name indicates, it used to be used to shelter flour and wheat, merchants'boxes and stalls. Today, we can always distinguish from old, large and sufficiently large doors to be able to store in the courtyard, food. At No. 4 there is a bourgeois house, which is richly decorated, surmounted by a stained glass window showing a cluster of grapes. It would be the home of a wealthy merchant or boss who has made a fortune in trade. The splendour of his home testifies to his social rise.

GRUND SANDY GRASS
Read moreA place where human paw has brought about a very special ecosystem. Until the 1970 s, great quarries produced sand and pavés. Abandoned since then, this place has seen a life typical of the sandy soils. It is possible to observe very rare plants such as Immortal sands, long leaves fescue or lunar Botriche. A 1,5 km discovery trail allows you to turn around this natural space not like others. To access it, you need to take the forest route that connects the village of Puttelange-lès-Thionville to the hamlet of Halling.

FORMER CASTLE OF EDOUARD JAUNEZ
Read moreTransformed into a town hall in 1996, this curious building is no more than Edouard Jaunez's old castle. A rich industrial industriel in Sarreguemines, he acquired the castle in 1894 for the modest sum of 41 000 francs. Its bichrome brick architecture (red and white) is characteristic of the late th century. Thus, our bourgeois industrial property has its own image, modern and tasteful. In 1904, Sieur Jaunez was even raised by Emperor Guillaume II in person! A few years later, around 1912, the administration of the Railways of Alsace-Lorraine would like, as a result of the expansion of railways, the destruction of the building. Fortunately, the City Council opposes it by buying the building. Today, it is the town hall of Remelfing.

CARTWRIGHTS' SQUARE
Read moreNow a must, the Place des Charrons, one of the trendiest new places in Metz's Outre-Seille district, where you can have lunch with friends or have a drink on the terrace when the sun comes out. It must be said that the square is not lacking in charm and one succumbs even more when one knows its rich historical past. The headquarters of the Charrons corporations, it is home to the 16th century Hôtel de Burtaigne, among others. Its bold blend of Gothic and Renaissance style will seduce the eye of the passer-by, who will love to discover on the facade, a richest animal repertoire (birds, wild animals and a lion holding a crest).
