Porte des Allemands

Highlight • Historical Site

The German Gate (French Porte des Allemands) is located in the French city of Metz, Lorraine. The gate, the only one of 17 medieval city gates of the Metzer city wall has been preserved, was named after the adjacent former hospital of the Teutonic Order, which was set up around 1210 near the church of St. Eucharius (Saint-Eucaire). The name would therefore also be translated with Deutschherrentor. The Torburg formed the main entrance to the city of Metz from the east.

The Ramparts of Metz

Highlight • Historical Site

A pleasant walk, plus medieval history
Originally the rampart formed a 7 kilometer enclosure punctuated by thirty-eight towers and eighteen gates. A little less than a quarter remains, forming a very pleasant walking circuit along the Seille with towers which often bear the name of corporations.

Metz Cathedral

Highlight • Other

The Saint-Étienne Cathedral (German: St. Stephen's Cathedral) in Metz in Lorraine was built between 1220 and 1520 and is considered one of the most beautiful and largest Gothic church buildings in France. With a vault height of more than 41 meters, it has the third highest interior after the cathedrals of Amiens and Beauvais; the area of its stained glass is around 6500 m², the largest in a French cathedral, hence the name La lanterne du Bon Dieu - English: "The Lantern of the Good Lord". It is therefore also one of the masterpieces of the Gothique Rayonnant. It is the episcopal church of the diocese of Metz. Since 1930, the cathedral has been classified as a monument historique (cultural monument) and protected.
