Constructed across more than 300 years from 1220 to 1552, Metz’s cathedral is one of the tallest in Europe, with breathtaking vaults in the nave soaring to 42 metres. With more stained glass than any other cathedral in the world the building has earned the name, “La Lanterne du Bon Dieu” (the Lord’s Lantern). The windows have been created by gothic...
Metz made history in 2010 when it unveiled the first satellite of the Pompidou centre in Paris. The building is the work of three architects, Shigeru Ban, Jean de Gastines and Philip Gumuchdijan and easily recognised for its outline, meant to resemble a Chinese bamboo hat. Exhibits in the vast galleries are all temporary or semi-temporary, with lan...
In a group of buildings that includes the historic former Petities Carmes Abbey are three museums giving you the clearest picture of Metz’s glorious Gallo-Roman and Merovingian past, as well as its culture since then. The museum ensemble is named after the palace in which the Austrasian Kings reigned and is an often bewildering maze of chambers and...
Dating to 390, this former church is the oldest in France. But it didn’t start out life as a place of worship; Saint-Pierre-aux-Nonains was a palaestra where boxers and wrestlers would train, and was also part of a spa complex, traces of which can be seen outside. The hall became a church as part of an abbey for women from the 7th century, which is...
Spanning the Seille to the east of the old centre, the magnificent Porte des Allemands is the last remaining castle bridge in France and the greatest piece of Metz’s old fortifications. It is essentially a gate with two sets of towers: Angular, crenellated ones facing towards the east and the Saar in the distance, and circular ones on the city side...
The choir, transept and the square tower of this church are all from the 12th century and are seen as a perfect representations of the romanesque style. On the right arm of the transept, linger by the opening to the chapel of the Gournays to see the two three-centred arches connecting it with the rest of the church. The stained glass windows were d...
The west side of this medieval square in the old centre is one long terrace of renaissance houses over a handsome arcade. The arches are more reminiscent of somewhere like Tuscany than eastern France, and show how well the city was doing for itself in the middle ages. Back then many of these buildings would have been occupied by early bankers from ...
South of the old centre this beautiful avenue has an a diversity of historicist art nouveau villas on the sides and a footpath in the middle, meandering through lawns and between hedges and past flower beds. It’s not just a lovely place to while away a few minutes, but an interesting part of Metz’s history. That’s because this is site of the city’s...
The city’s train station is preserved as an historic monument and was also built during Metz’s German era. It’s a wondrous building but also politically-charged, ordered by Wilhelm II and designed in the Rhenish romanesque revival style. Rumour has it that Wilhelm himself drew up the plans for the clock-tower, which has a sculpture of the Frankish ...
These marvellous gardens also follow the course of Metz’s old defences, on the site of a vast ditch filled in after the citadel was pulled down in 1816. In these French gardens with geometric lawns and hedges trimmed to right angles you can look out to Mont Saint-Quentin, climbing to the west of the city. The Esplanade is the life and soul of Metz’...
Metz is a large town in north-east France, to the south of Luxembourg and north of Nancy: it is the prefecture town for the Moselle department. The border between France and Germany is a short distance to the east. Metz is an important regional centre with a substantial number of historic monuments and sites.
Metz is in the northeast of France, in the Moselle department. It is the capital of the region formerly known as Lorraine, now joined up with Champagne, Ardennes and Alsace and called Grand Est. Metz is one of France’s oldest cities with a history going back some 3,000 years and the fact that it is rather under the tourism radar is astonishing.
Metz is in the Grand-Est region of France and in the Moselle departement that borders Luxembourg and Germany. Mapcarta, the open map.
