On a limestone spur above the Vezouze lies the Château de Blâmont, built around 1200. Once the seat of the Counts of Blâmont, later a romantic castle and even a weaving mill. In 1944 it was badly damaged by American bombing. Today the ruins – with five towers – are a silent witness to centuries of history.

This ruined castle is one of the best traces of the history of Lorraine in the Middle Ages. Its 12th century keep and its 13th century flanking towers still exist today. The structure of its walls in opus spicatum (that is to say in the shape of ears) is also noteworthy.
