ヴィーニュル＝レ＝ハットンシャテルのおすすめツーリングルート

Beautifully situated at Foxycamp campsite. The campsite is simple but wonderfully peaceful (we were there in early September) and run by very friendly owners. Virtually no mobile phone reception also ensures peace and quiet.

Former washhouse, like the ones you find quite often in this area.

A very beautiful lake, well worth a visit. I first visited it in 1993 on a tour of Lorraine. Mirabelle plums are grown everywhere nearby, and they also produce very good mirabelle plum schnapps.

Unfortunately it is closed.

In the village of Pannes (in the Meurthe-et-Moselle department), the Monument aux Morts was inaugurated on 2 August 1923 in memory of the victims of the First World War. During the war, Pannes was occupied by the German army and was only liberated on 12 September 1918 by General Patton's troops. The original monument contained a statue that unfortunately has not survived the ravages of time. The current version is therefore no longer identical to the original. The inauguration was widely reported at the time in the newspaper L’Éclair de l’Est, with a speech by Mr Noël, in which he honoured the names and stories of the fallen.

On the hill of Montsec in France stands this impressive memorial, erected by the United States in honor of the American troops who broke through the German St. Mihiel salient in September 1918. The monument, a classical colonnade with a bronze relief map in the center, offers a panoramic view of the former battlefield. It symbolizes the cooperation between the French and American armies and commemorates the more than 550,000 American soldiers who took part in this first major, independently led American offensive operation of World War I.

Founded around 708 by Count Wulfoalde, this Benedictine abbey became an important religious and cultural centre in Lorraine. The abbey was under the protection of Charlemagne and flourished under Abbot Smaragdus in the 9th century. Today, you can still visit the abbey church of Saint-Michel, home to the masterpiece La Pâmoison de la Vierge by Ligier Richier. The 18th-century monastery library houses thousands of ancient works and is one of the most beautiful in the region.

This former abbey church forms the historic heart of Saint-Mihiel. Originally built in the 9th century, it took on its current form during major renovations in the 17th and 18th centuries. Inside, you can admire a magnificent baroque organ (1679–1681), colourful stained glass windows and the masterpiece La Pâmoison de la Vierge by sculptor Ligier Richier. A place where art, history and spirituality come together.
