3,000 years of history have given the city of Metz, lying at the confluence of the Moselle and Seille rivers, its unique character, with its heritage of outstanding beauty so remarkably preserved in a haven of greenery.

Legends have settled in the heart of the narrow streets and come to life in the very stones.
