✝️ Pilgrim's Cross near Thionville (1721) An impressive wayside cross from 1721 – simple yet powerful, framed by an ornately wrought iron railing. It stands on a small hill overlooking the hilly landscape near Thionville and invites you to pause for a moment – in keeping with the ancient pilgrimage tradition. Tip: Come early in the morning – then the cross lies still in the light, and the place exudes a special sense of tranquility. Ideal for a quiet moment on your route through Grand Est.

Cycling tour along the Moselle with a historical touch....Charles the Fearful is the namesake here and information boards make his time and deeds come alive.

Super shaded, pleasant during the heat wave.

No difficulties

Blast Furnace U4 is a rust-infested fossil. It stands alone on a fenced industrial steppe next to the national road 953 and the river Vensch. Its neighboring furnaces were gradually demolished. The fight for his life lasted 15 years. Since 1995, blast furnace 4 has been the only one in France to have been listed as a historical monument. During the season, from the oldest blast furnace of the Lorraine brazier, “all the suns” shine into the night as a staging of the artist Claude Leveque’s eponymous light installation.

Let's go over the Moselle cycle path... this will be our slope for more than 300 km!

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what prompted people to erect“ their ”cross at this point. (...) These crossroads have been erected as visible signs and attract the looks of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who overcame death (...). The cross is part of our life, just as it was part of the life of Jesus. So I wish that many people ... visit the crossroads, whether as places of silence and breathing before God, whether as places of congregation meeting, prayer and praise of God.
