Tips from the Community
The Cathedral of Metz is called Cathédrale Saint-Étienne de Metz in French. It is a Gothic masterpiece from the 13th to 16th centuries, known as "La lanterne du Bon Dieu" (The Lantern of the Good Lord) because of its 6,500 m² of stained glass windows. At 42 m high, it is one of the tallest Gothic churches in France.

Of the original 17 city gates, only the German Gate in the east remains. Named after the former hospital of the Teutonic Order, which stood nearby, it was built as an entrance to the city on a bridge over the Seuille River. A medieval structure straight out of a picture book.

🚢 **Koenigsmacker Lock – Technology Meets Landscape** The **Koenigsmacker Lock** is a large lock on the Moselle near the Luxembourg border. Here, cargo ships negotiate the difference in elevation of the canalized Moselle – a fascinating spectacle of water, steel, and precise control. The lock area is easily visible and is nestled between green spaces, a bike path, and the banks of the Moselle. **Tip:** Watch a ship being locked up close – especially exciting for technology fans and families. Mornings or late afternoons are often the busiest times.

The road is superbly paved and therefore a great ride. But be careful, some of the bends are tight and blind!
