Very beautiful wooden sculpture

This beautiful rest area with its quaint sculptures is located directly in front of the bridge over the Nied River near Freistoff. Crossing the bridge, there's also a "regular" rest area on the other side of the Nied River.

⛪ **Saint-Croix Abbey in Bouzonville – Monastic Tradition with a Rich History** The **Saint-Croix Abbey** in **Bouzonville** is one of the oldest monastic complexes in the region. Founded in the **11th century**, it was a spiritual center between the Moselle and Saar rivers for centuries. The Romanesque-Gothic architecture of the monastery church has been rebuilt and restored several times, but its origins remain. 📜 After its dissolution during the French Revolution, the monastery was partially destroyed but later returned to religious use. Today, it is inhabited by a **Benedictine community** that welcomes visitors. **Tip:** The simple, spiritual atmosphere of the complex invites you to pause for a moment. Ideal for a quiet stroll or a quick visit to the monastery shop – featuring handmade products made by the nuns.

Since 2024, overnight accommodation has also been available here. Ideal for groups, there are 18 beds.

Great way to cool down on hot days. But unfortunately no drinking water.

The church is located above the town, somewhat out of the way. It is usually closed and only opens for mass on Saturdays. But with a bit of luck you will come across people cleaning or maintaining the building. Then you can catch a glimpse of the interior.

If you want to take a quieter break than in the sometimes bustling center, this is the right place for you 👍
