The best road cycling routes around Lironville

Very beautiful place in the forest. Numerous gravel paths ranging from smooth white paths to rougher trails.

Gothic with a story. Behind the austere façade of this church lies a rich history. Built from the 13th century onwards by the Antonists, an order dedicated to caring for the sick, it was originally the church of a hospital. The architecture is a rare mix of Gothic Rayonnant and Flamboyant, with a unique façade designed by Jacquemin de Lenoncourt, who later also designed Toul Cathedral. In 1574, the church was handed over to the Jesuits, who transformed it into the university church of the newly founded Université de Pont-à-Mousson. In 1840, the church was one of the first buildings in France to be classified as a Monument Historique. Today, it remains a silent witness to religious, intellectual and architectural history – and a haven of peace in the heart of the city.

The architecture is a rare mix of Gothic Rayonnant and Flamboyant, with a unique façade designed by Jacquemin de Lenoncourt, who later designed Toul Cathedral. Note the asymmetrical towers and the Gothic detailing around the portal – subtle but impressive.

Visible from afar on the banks of the Moselle.

I recommend that you explore this square in the center of Pont-a-Mousson, including the largest Renaissance arcade group in Lorraine!!!

The view of this church and the bridge is worthwhile from the various perspectives. It also leads either to the old center of the city or to the Abbaye
