A little further away you can still find the old canal and locks with lock houses. I have added 2 or 3 pictures.

This bridge is a real challenge with a touring bike loaded with a lot of luggage and cannot be managed by women without courageous help. What a joke it is that it is "easy to cross"!!!

Chapel probably built at the beginning of the 11th century, having undergone restorations over time. It overlooks St Quirin and overlooks the second religious building in the village.

All windows in the chapel were created by the master glazier "Victor HÖNER de Nancy" in the second half of the 19th century. Two further windows by Victor HÖNER (1840-1896) are in the > Église Priorale Les Sept Roses < located below the chapel. There are also eight windows from his work in maisonMazerand, 13 km away; these are unusual in that they do not depict religious motifs. Rather, these are bar scenes, which are probably a depiction of paintings by the Dutch painter "David TENIERS the Elder" (* 1582 in Antwerp; † July 29, 1649).

The Écluse de Réchicourt-le-Château shaft lock, built between 1960 and 1965 and approximately 3 km from the main town along the Rhine-Marne Canal, replaces a lock staircase with six locks. Depending on the water level in the canal, their fall height is 15.45 to 16.10 meters. This makes it the highest French lock in a barge canal.
