A beautiful castle complex, which towers high on a rocky promontory, Sierck les Bains.

The castle of the Dukes of Lorraine is enthroned high on a rocky outcrop and towers over the village and the picturesque Moselle bends: an overwhelming panorama. Often destroyed and remodeled, the 11th-century fortress was one of the favorite residences of the Dukes of Lorraine, and is also marked by the history of the von Sierck family. Permanent exhibitions and numerous animations that immerse the visitor in the atmosphere of the Middle Ages.

Nice view of Sierck-les-Bains and its imposing fortress: the castle of the Dukes of Lorraine. Although it is difficult to date its construction, a document from the Duke mentions the existence of the castle from the 11th century. It is one of the few castles from this period to be so well preserved in the east of France. It was the residence of the Dukes of Lorraine and dominates the valley, leaning against a red rock. Visiting the site is well worth a short detour.
