THE RED FOUNTAIN
Go there and contact
Heading towards the Mousson plateau, you will reach the Red Fountain, which has made Pont-à-Mousson famous for over 500 years. Coming from the top of the hill, the water which flows there deposits a reddish ferruginous sediment which gives its name to the fountain. In the 15th century, the spring was already said to have medicinal properties. Many people went there to relieve all sorts of ailments: asthma, anaemia, fatigue... but also to restore beautiful colours to their pale cheeks! It is said that the Cardinal of Richelieu found it excellent!
