View of the Moselle

Moselschleuse

One of the many caves in this Moselle valley. The cave is 370 meters long and 16 meters deep.

A little further towards the barrage you get a better impression of how powerful the river is here. With a bit of luck you can see cormorants.

In addition to the caves 'Grotte Sainte Reine' and 'Grotte de Sept Salles' in the immediate vicinity, there is another karst cave on the hiking trail.

The Sainte-Reine cave or Sainte-Reine hole is the second natural cavity in the department of Meurthe-et-Moselle in terms of known development and has been classified as a historic monument since 1910. It has several entrances classified under the general name of "Caves known as Trou de Sainte-Reine" and was originally part of an endokarst under the bottom of the Moselle valley.

The Grotte des Sept Salles is located on the right bank of the Moselle and, as far as researched, is the third largest natural cave in the Meurthe-et-Moselle department. There are several larger and smaller entrances here on the hiking trail.

At the end of the 19th century, a railway line was put into operation here, which, among other things, served to supply the fort with military supplies. The line was last used for passenger traffic but was closed again in 1946. [https://www.villeylesec.fr/Le-chemin-de-fer?lang=fr]
