Hôtel de la Monnaie (Vic-sur-Seille) This remarkable civil building, dating from 1456–1484, is often mistaken for a mint. In reality, it was probably the home of a wealthy money-changer, possibly the d’Hoffelize family. The building is a magnificent example of flamboyant Gothic architecture, with early Renaissance influences. The richly decorated facades and roofs have been protected as historical monuments since 1930.

Despite the conflicts, the saltworks continued to contribute to the city's prosperity in the 18th and 19th centuries. Salt production only stopped in 1973 because the industrial facilities had suffered less from the bombings of 1944 than the rest of the city. Today, the town of 3,300 inhabitants highlights its heritage and history as rich as it is unique. Just like the green surroundings between meadows and ponds, which delight hikers.
