very beautiful place

The lake is located in a kind of park. Not a soul there.

The factory and its associated residential quarters, owned by Czech shoe manufacturer Tomáš Baťa, were built between 1931 and 1935, modeled on the model town of Zlín in the Czech Republic, Bata's hometown. It is best reached from the Rhine-Marne Canal via the former railway bridge at Lock No. 8 and the former train station building. The dirt road is easily accessible even on a racing bike in dry weather. First, you reach the former factory buildings with their typical red and white color scheme. In accordance with the Athens Charter, the living areas were separated from those used for work. Accordingly, the actual residential settlement is laid out a few hundred meters up a hill. Here, too, the residential buildings are constructed in the Classical Modern style as cubic structures with flat roofs. I particularly liked the red-brick houses in the first section, but the church at the highest point of the settlement is also worth a look.

A little further away you can still find the old canal and locks with lock houses. I have added 2 or 3 pictures.

The Écluse de Réchicourt-le-Château shaft lock, built between 1960 and 1965 and approximately 3 km from the main town along the Rhine-Marne Canal, replaces a lock staircase with six locks. Depending on the water level in the canal, their fall height is 15.45 to 16.10 meters. This makes it the highest French lock in a barge canal.

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.
