美しい教会で、間違いなく訪れる価値があります。

The church of Saint-Jean, in Bar-le-Duc, is a neo-Byzantine style building with references to the neo-Romanesque style. It was built in two phases, between the 19th and 20th centuries. Since the mid-19th century, the parish of Notre-Dame had an "annex" in the Brasseries district. The idea of transforming it into a church came in 1869. The following year the project was entrusted to the architect Charles Demoget. The result, a neo-Gothic building, was controversial and Demoget was removed from office, making way for Ernest Birglin who designed a new building in neo-Byzantine style. But it was only in 1875, after the creation of a fourth parish under the name of Saint-Jean, that construction of the church began. The first phase of the works lasted until 1880, but only the apse, the choir and the transept were erected. In 1933 the architect Royer opened the second phase of work, with the construction of the nave which lasted until 1939. The façade, however, remained partially unfinished.

Visible from afar, the tower points the way to the upper old town. From here you have a good view of the city that now lies at our feet.

What a beautiful old town! Such pretty houses and charming corners. A walk is very worthwhile! But why is there so much empty here?!? Why doesn't anyone want to live here?

The Étangs de Sainte-Geneviève are a series of ponds and lakes surrounded by lush forests and meadows, where you can enjoy the beauty and tranquility of nature. It's a great way to experience the natural beauty of this area.

The Bois de Féval offers a variety of trails for different levels of difficulty. You can admire the greenery, the fauna and flora, as well as the nearby stream, while walking in the woods. Bois de Féval is also part of the CORINE Land Cover project, which aims to monitor changes in land use and land cover in Europe.

Beautiful church in Bar-le-Duc

Originally part of the castle that was demolished in 1670. Since 1970, the Neuf-Castel has housed the Barrois Museum. The area of the former castle is now a spacious square with benches, trees and a beautiful view of the lower town.
