This imposing 18th-century abbey is one of the finest examples of baroque monastic architecture in Lorraine. Once the headquarters of the Order of the Premonstratensians, the building now houses a cultural centre and a hotel.
Situated on the banks of the Moselle, between Metz and Nancy, the abbey offers a unique mix of heritage, art and tranquillity. The gardens, monumental staircase and cloisters are open to the public and are an impressive stopover for any bike tour.

Very beautiful view of the Prémontrés Abbey which is on the other side of the Moselle. Also known as Sainte-Marie-Majeure, it dates from the 18th century.

If you need a place to stay overnight, we recommend the hotel in the former abbey (Acceuil Velo).
