🌾 **Étang du Tivoli – Nature Break near Volmerange-les-Mines (Wallingen)** The **Étang du Tivoli** is quietly located on the edge of **Volmerange-les-Mines** (German: **Wallingen**) – a small, natural pond surrounded by meadows, field paths, and sparsely scattered trees. 🐦 The spot is a popular stopover for walkers and cyclists, often visited by herons, ducks, and other waterfowl. A small bench invites you to rest with a view over the water. **Tip:** Ideal for a quiet break on a tour through the Lorraine border region – especially beautiful at sunrise or late evening light.

✝️ Pilgrim's Cross near Thionville (1721) An impressive wayside cross from 1721 – simple yet powerful, framed by an ornately wrought iron railing. It stands on a small hill overlooking the hilly landscape near Thionville and invites you to pause for a moment – in keeping with the ancient pilgrimage tradition. Tip: Come early in the morning – then the cross lies still in the light, and the place exudes a special sense of tranquility. Ideal for a quiet moment on your route through Grand Est.

The Voie Bleue runs from the fortified town of Thionville, with its two lock bridges, true masterpieces of military architecture, along the port of Illange, the first river port for metallurgical products, passing by its industrial heritage and the former U4 blast furnace, one of the few buildings of the 20th century steel industry that is now a cultural and historical centre. Just before Metz, the cycle path crosses a beautiful wetland with idyllic ponds. Take the opportunity of your stay in the Lorraine capital to stroll through the old town: the Saint-Etienne Cathedral and the Pompidou-Metz Centre for Contemporary Art are two must-sees.
