入る周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ7

メッツとペルトルの間の古い道沿いに、オート・ベヴォワ（Haute Bévoye）とバッセ・ベヴォワ（Basse Bévoye）の2つの邸宅がありました。丘の上にあるオート・ベヴォワは、14世紀初頭から記録が残る城館です。1404年には「Jehan Xaippey」（ジャン・ド・ライジュクール、通称シャッペル）が所有しており、当時12頭の牛と8頭の馬が飼育されていました。18世紀の住居棟と作業棟に加えて、中世の城の平面図はまだ読み取ることができ、堀に囲まれた長方形の4つの翼棟があり、2つの翼棟と3つの塔が当初の状態を偲ばせます。 https://melodi.univ-lorraine.fr/s/projet-cite-de-metz/item/2973

In the heart of Nomeny lie the remains of a medieval castle that was once a strategic stronghold of the bishops of Metz. Built in the 12th century and fortified in the 14th century, the castle had a rich history until it was largely dismantled in the 17th century. Today, a few towers, walls and moats are still visible — silent witnesses to a glorious past.

On the Rue de la Seille, near the river and the ruins of the old castle, lies the charming Port-sur-Seille wash house, built at the beginning of the 20th century. Fed by a natural spring, the lavoir served not only for washing, but also as a drinking place for cattle and a meeting place for the women of the village. The covered brick structure, with a tiled roof and cast iron details, houses a fountain with two large wash basins and a central column. The original drinking trough for animals is now a flower box – a nod to the past.

Ideal for cooling off on hot days 🥵

From Wikipedia: > Château de Clémery is a French castle located in the village of Clémery in Lorraine, in the Grand Est region. It dates back to a 15th century fortified complex which received its current appearance following changes in the 18th and 19th centuries. The portal and the entrance pavilion to the South, the facades and roofs of the castle, the antechamber, the large living room and the small living room on the raised ground floor of the central body, the alcove bedroom on the first floor of the The east wing, the large staircase at the junction of the main body and the west wing are registered as historic monuments by decree of June 25, 1986. > > The property is private and is generally not open to the public. An exception is Heritage Day, during which the castle owners open the castle grounds to visitors.

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.

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.
