Metz train station

Highlight • Historical Site

In addition to the rail service it offers, the Metz-Ville station is distinguished by its heritage value, which has earned it the status of historical monument since 1975. The facades are decorated with stained glass windows, capitals and other ornaments.

These same elements are found inside. Waiting for your train is thus an opportunity to discover the architectural richness of the place.

This work was created by the sculptor Marc Couturier in 2 copies on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the friendship treaty between France and Japan.

The first copy, called "Tremblement de Ciel", was cast by the Nantes subsidiary of the Moselle company Les Bronzes d'Industrie (LBI), and offered to France by Fuji Television Networks, the first Japanese channel, for the 50th anniversary of its founding.
Made of cupro-aluminum and covered with gold leaf, this sculpture weighs 11 tons for 25 meters in height. It was inaugurated on December 15, 2007.
It could be moved to the forecourt of the Center Pompidou...


The second copy, called "The Flame of Liberty", is in Japan, on Odaiba, a large artificial island located in Tokyo Bay. It is near the FUJI-TV studios and was donated to Japan by the "Association for the Year of France in Japan".

Jean-Marie Pelt Gardens

Highlight • Other

Very spacious park on the banks of the Saille with some nice special features, e.g. the footpaths along the Saille, the hill with the 'Flamme de la Liberté', or the fact that even the annually expected floods of the Saille with floodplains and marsh areas were included in the planning.

Former railway station water tower

Highlight • Structure

This water tower was built in the German, imperial period, and it's quite a sight - no wonder they call it the water castle! It forms a nice ensemble with the nearby train station, in the same style.
