Stop-overs and city breaks
Mosaic of styles
At the crossroads of Europe, to discover Metz is like reading a history book. From the Roman era to the present day, centuries of history are carved into the stone, showcased by the golden limestone of Jaumont, spelling out the details of their heritage:
- thermal baths at the Metz Métropole Cour d’Or Museums
- the stunning cathedral and its 6,500 m² of stained-glass windows
- elegant squares and 18th century residences
- an exceptional military heritage or the Imperial Quarter fanning out around the train station
Metz embodies a mosaic of styles, materials and colours. Still alive today, its heritage continues on into the future with an architectural wonder, the up-coming Centre Pompidou-Metz, a bold statement, a site dedicated to modern and contemporary art (opening may 2010).
