To visit the factory you have to cross the bridge and drive back a bit. Unfortunately the exhibition and cafe were closed during our visit.

Listed as a Historic Monument, the Saint-Étienne church is very pretty. Inside there is a magnificent organ, perhaps you will have the chance to listen to it during your visit.

This former tinplate or tinware factory houses a whole complex that makes it one of the most beautiful 18th century industrial sites in Lorraine. The complex includes the manufacturing workshops, workers' housing, the chapel and the tinworks. The parks on the estate make it a pleasant place. The factory has been converted into gîtes and guest rooms, a filming location and hosts exhibitions related to industrial heritage.

A true mystery of life. This pond is actually a sinkhole, but instead of being bottomless, it is only 35m deep. Its crystalline turquoise hues hide a mystery: the water remains at a mild temperature of 11°c, summer and winter alike.
