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.

This sculpture is located in the Parc de La Seille, at the top of an artificial hill from which you can see the Pompidou Center in Metz a few hundred meters to the north. The park runs along Avenue Louis le Débonnaire. GPS: 49°06'14.5" N / 6°11'04.5" E 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".
