An overnight stay at the abbey is worthwhile, as you sleep in a truly unique setting. We chose the location because it's ideally located for cycling tours along the Moselle to Metz and Nancy.

🏰 Pont-à-Mousson – City of bridges, books and baroque Located on the Moselle, between Metz and Nancy, Pont-à-Mousson is a city with deep roots. It was founded around a medieval bridge and became an intellectual centre thanks to the creation of the University of Lorraine in the 16th century. The city has been hit by wars several times, but has always risen again. Today, you can admire the baroque abbey of the Prémontrés, the lively Place Duroc with its Renaissance houses, and Gothic churches such as Saint-Martin and Saint-Laurent. Pont-à-Mousson is also known for its industrial heritage – it is the world centre for cast iron pipes – and for its cultural festivals such as the Mousson d’Été.

This imposing 18th-century abbey is one of the finest examples of baroque monastic architecture in Lorraine. Once the headquarters of the Order of the Premonstratensians, the building now houses a cultural centre and a hotel. Situated on the banks of the Moselle, between Metz and Nancy, the abbey offers a unique mix of heritage, art and tranquillity. The gardens, monumental staircase and cloisters are open to the public and are an impressive stopover for any bike tour.

If you are looking for accommodation in Pont a Mousson, you should take a look at the hotel in the former abbey (Abbaye). It is not cheap, but the atmosphere is worth seeing. And the breakfast is a good basis for a long bike ride.
