This church located on the hill of Sion has a huge tower of 45 m topped by a Virgin of 7 m and 8 tons

It took several periods to build this church on the hill of Sion. Work began in the 10th century. A huge 45-metre tower, topped by a 7-metre, 8-ton Virgin Mary (cast in the Vaucouleurs workshops), saw the light of day in 1870. It is one of Lorraine's largest pilgrimages, welcoming international religious communities and symbolizing Franco-German reconciliation. A magnificent monument steeped in history.
