Erected in 1905, the Château de Mercy was built in response to the architectural shift in the region under German occupation. It is thus possible to admire its clearly French style.

Hiking
The castle used to be a breathtaking gem and lived up to its purpose - a kind of architectural resistance against the German occupation. It is currently completely run down and is more reminiscent of a lost place. Apparently it was sold in 2021 to a Nancy-based company that wants to refurbish it (along with the chapel) and develop it into residential and commercial units. As of now (June 2023) not much seems to have happened.
