The village of Racrange was liberated by the Americans on November 15, 1944. Barely two weeks later, Victor Dreyer, a farmer, and his son Gilbert, were returning from Rodalbe, where they had been preparing for the return of their family, who had been expelled to the Dordogne. The German army had protected their retreat by planting mines on the path through the forest. The wheels of the wagon triggered the explosion that sent the entire team flying into the trees; Twelve-year-old Gilbert was killed instantly; his father died the next day. The explosion, heard as far away as the newly liberated village, plunged Racrange into deep disarray. His other son, Bernard, would serve as mayor of the town for 24 years. This memorial, erected in their memory on the Chemin de la Seille by the family, reminds us of our vigilance in defending peace, freedom, and our democracy.

The Collegiate Church of Saint-Léger de Marsal is a former collegiate church located in the French commune of Marsal, in the Moselle department. Originally built in the Romanesque style, it has undergone several significant modifications up to the present day. Dedicated to Saint Léger, the foundation stones of the current church were laid in the 12th century. The building was then in the Germanic tradition with a deep chevet and two oriented chapels, as well as an impressive Westwork, a western massif. The parish church was elevated to the title of collegiate church in 1222 by Abbess Clémence de Neumunster. She then installed a chapter of seven canons there. The collegiate church of Marsal has been united with that of Vic-sur-Seille since the 18th century.

Despite the conflicts, the saltworks continued to contribute to the city's prosperity in the 18th and 19th centuries. Salt production only stopped in 1973 because the industrial facilities had suffered less from the bombings of 1944 than the rest of the city. Today, the town of 3,300 inhabitants highlights its heritage and history as rich as it is unique. Just like the green surroundings between meadows and ponds, which delight hikers.

The salt mines of Dieuze became a strategic point in the Middle Ages and the town was coveted by the Dukes of Lorraine. Affected by the Thirty Years' War, Dieuze was conquered by the King of France in 1642.

Marsal is a small hamlet with a very salty history: from the Bronze Age until the middle of the 17th century, the village knew how to use its salt water sources to prosper in the salt trade.
