More specifically, as mentioned in the previous comment, the building partially collapsed. Apparently, it was vandalism perpetrated by a worthless individual who has nothing to contribute to society.

Fort Plappeville, renamed Fort Alvensleben in 1872, is a military installation northwest of Metz. It is part of the first fortified belt of Metz, built during the Second Empire by Napoleon III. The first fortified belt of Metz consists of the forts Saint-Privat (1870), Queleu (1867), Bordes (1870), Saint-Julien (1867), Gambetta, Déroulède, Decaen, Plappeville (1867), and Saint-Quentin (1867). Most of them were still unfinished in 1870, when the Franco-Prussian War broke out.

💧 Plan d'Eau de la Sangsue – Small Natural Lake Tucked away in the countryside lies the Plan d'Eau de la Sangsue, a small natural lake with wild shoreline vegetation, calm waters, and a natural charm. While its name ("Leech Pond") is unusual, the body of water is a peaceful spot for walkers, nature lovers, and birdwatchers. 🌿 Surrounded by forest and meadows, the pond is a refuge for amphibians, insects, and waterfowl. A narrow path leads along the shore – ideal for a quiet break in nature. Tip: Particularly beautiful in spring or when there is light fog – then the pond appears almost mystical. Perfect for a quiet rest off the beaten track.
