ソーボイのおすすめツーリングルート

A very beautiful path along the canal with many locks and small highlights.

Very impressive when you drive through the old city gates.

Verdun is a very beautiful city that has been very important since the Middle Ages. It's lovely to walk through the place and admire it.

The Meuse Canal is not perfectly straight like many French canals from the 19th century.

Choloy-Ménillot National Cemetery in Toul adjacent to the "516th Regiment du Train" military site.

An interesting city with a remarkable history. Joan of Arc, a resistance fighter during the Hundred Years' War, also plays a major role here. A 2.5-ton equestrian statue stands in front of the town hall. Up the many steps is the impressive cathedral, offering a magnificent view of the Meuse Valley and the city.

We particularly enjoyed the history of the town, situated on the Meuse River. The beautiful town hall was built in 1847/48 on the site of a monastery in the Italian Renaissance style. In front of the town hall stands the gigantic equestrian statue of Joan of Arc, revered by the French. This cast-iron monument weighs 2.5 tons. Joan is said to have conquered the city. There is also a Joan of Arc Museum in the town.

Saint-Mihiel is picturesquely situated on the Meuse, on the edge of the Lorraine Regional Nature Park. The town grew around a Benedictine abbey, founded in the 8th century, and flourished during the Renaissance. Visit the abbey with its impressive library, the Museum of Sacred Art, and the Saint-Michel church. Wander the charming streets, admire the sculptures of Ligier Richier, and taste local specialities such as the “croquets” and “rochers de Saint-Mihiel”. A town full of history, culture and character.
