Fountain with picnic table and trash can.

A beautiful old church with impressive stained glass windows.

To visit the factory you have to cross the bridge and drive back a bit. Unfortunately the exhibition and cafe were closed during our visit.

However, if you are out and about during daylight hours and are thirsty, you will always find something in the easily accessible cemeteries of French villages.

There is a market on Tuesday mornings.

Very beautiful view of Passavant from the top of the viaduct.

In 1806, Joseph Falatieu, then owner of the Bains-les-Bains factory (Vosges) and since 1804, of the Pont-du-Bois forge, acquired the property of Freland which extends over the communes of Ambiévillers and of Mailleroncourt-Saint-Pancras. It includes a refinery forge (Forge de Freland) and a ruined house, located in Ambiévillers on the other bank of the Coney; a bridge connected the two banks. In 1824, J. Falalieu bought the land around the ruin. In 1850, Annette Chavane, daughter of J. Falatieu, heiress to the Freland property, had the current residence built on the site of the old house in ruins; work began in 1848. A chapel built later (1867) and a concierge complete the ensemble. Finally, a park is created around the house, up to the bank of the Coney. The construction of the Eastern Canal in 1880 reduced the size of the park while the residence was exposed, on the edge of the reach. Downstream, a swing bridge, similar to that of Selles, was installed to cross the canal and reach the forge located on the other bank. The Chavanne family still owns the house.
