The Cathedral of Metz is called Cathédrale Saint-Étienne de Metz in French. It is a Gothic masterpiece from the 13th to 16th centuries, known as "La lanterne du Bon Dieu" (The Lantern of the Good Lord) because of its 6,500 m² of stained glass windows. At 42 m high, it is one of the tallest Gothic churches in France.

Of the original 17 city gates, only the German Gate in the east remains. Named after the former hospital of the Teutonic Order, which stood nearby, it was built as an entrance to the city on a bridge over the Seuille River. A medieval structure straight out of a picture book.

⛪ **Saint-Croix Abbey in Bouzonville – Monastic Tradition with a Rich History** The **Saint-Croix Abbey** in **Bouzonville** is one of the oldest monastic complexes in the region. Founded in the **11th century**, it was a spiritual center between the Moselle and Saar rivers for centuries. The Romanesque-Gothic architecture of the monastery church has been rebuilt and restored several times, but its origins remain. 📜 After its dissolution during the French Revolution, the monastery was partially destroyed but later returned to religious use. Today, it is inhabited by a **Benedictine community** that welcomes visitors. **Tip:** The simple, spiritual atmosphere of the complex invites you to pause for a moment. Ideal for a quiet stroll or a quick visit to the monastery shop – featuring handmade products made by the nuns.

The road is superbly paved and therefore a great ride. But be careful, some of the bends are tight and blind!

Great way to cool down on hot days. But unfortunately no drinking water.

If you want to take a quieter break than in the sometimes bustling center, this is the right place for you 👍
