Temple Neuf and view of the Moselle River

Highlight • Religious Site

The Temple Neuf was built from 1901 to 1904 from grey sandstone in the neo-Romanesque style in the Jardin des Amours at the end of the Place de la Comédie and forms a picturesque contrast to the classical architecture of the opera house.

Roches Footbridge

Highlight • Other

Metz is at the junction of two rivers, the Seille and the Mosel, and is thus also a city of water. Its marina and riverbanks give the city a romantic atmosphere. The swans in this part of the Mosel are quite a tourist attraction as well.

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.

Temple Neuf of Metz

Highlight • Religious Site

The Protestant town church is located on the southwestern tip of the "Île du Petit-Saulcy," which is surrounded by the Moselle River. It is a neo-Romanesque building from the early 20th century.

Walking paths around the church lead through a small park, the Jardin d'Amour, to the tip of the island.

Moyen Bridge

Highlight • Other

The Middle Bridge is one of the many bridges in the city of Metz. It offers a lovely view of the Temple Neuf and the island of Petit-Saulcy, which it faces.

Located in the extension of the Pont des Morts, it was originally called Moyen Pont des Morts. The name of these two works comes from their financing, since the Metz hospital used the clothes of the dead to pay for their construction.

Esplanade Fountains

Highlight • Monument

Very beautiful complex on the edge of the old town. The fountain and the "grotto" are an eye-catcher if you are coming from the Moselle.
