グリスクールの洞窟・トップ4

Proud stones on a proud hill At the top of the Butte de Mousson, 200 metres above the Moselle valley, lie the impressive remains of the medieval Château de Mousson. Built in the 11th century by the Counts of Bar, it was once a strategic stronghold that levied tolls on the trade routes between Dijon and Metz. The castle was destroyed in 1633 on the orders of Richelieu, as punishment for the Lorraine resistance to the French crown. Since then, only the ruins remain: an oval wall, remains of towers, and the outlines of the chapel and living quarters.

This fortified house is built on and around a medieval castle that once stood there. Its name comes from that of one of the local lords who also built the chapel.

A breathtaking view of the Château Corbin built in the 18th century and which today houses a library and a socio-cultural center.

One day off. A trip to the ruins of Mouisson and swimming a few lengths to relax was a beautiful day.

Dieulouard is also a good place to stop the pilgrimage, as there is a train connection and frequent buses to Pont-à-Mousson.

Small village with bars, restaurants, bakery etc. Stamp point for the Way of St. James in the church
