19th century church, dedicated to Saint Étienne, built in 1833 and restored after 1918. During the First World War (1914-1918) the village was considered part of the red zone and was almost completely destroyed. Despite reconstruction, many of the former residents did not return.

This serene place is the resting place of more than 5,000 French and German soldiers from WWI and WWII. The cemetery, with its simple stone crosses and impressive lead cross, is a reminder of the fierce fighting around Reillon. A place of silence, reflection and reconciliation, where history becomes tangible in the landscape of Lorraine. A large lead cross of 3.20 metres adorns the central memorial.

Between 1914 and 1918, Leintrey was occupied by German troops. The houses and the church were heavily bombed, life became unbearable and the inhabitants had to flee. Only two houses were still standing at the Armistice. Just 1.5 km from the village, French troops held out in their trenches, despite heavy attacks. On 10 July 1916, the Germans blew up mines under these positions - 83 soldiers of the 162nd regiment were killed. After the war, the village was rebuilt in 1925. The school, the town hall and the presbytery were designed by Joseph Hornecker, also known for the Grand Théâtre de Nancy. In 1940, a new occupation followed. Liberation did not come until November 1944, after further destruction, including the church.

Xousse was located near the former border between France and Germany (1871–1914), just 2 km away. In the run-up to WWI, this was a strategically sensitive area. In the area, old boundary stones can still be found that remind us of this period. The village was completely destroyed in 1914-1918 and 1939-1945: the population was evacuated. You will not find a memorial here, but a sober War Remembrance plaque on the church.

Not far from Lunéville, Chanteheux has several remarkable buildings, such as its church, its castle, its war memorial and the airfield stele. As for La Vezouze, it reigns an air of tranquility in the town.
