CASTRAL TOWER OF THE CASTLE COUNTY OF CRÉHANGE
This ruined castle once housed a triple town. Through its four round towers, it formed a massive and fortified quadrilateral. In 1677, Marshal François de Créquy left, by withdrawing to Metz, a detachment of sixty men in the castle, where they were attacked and made prisoner by Charles V of Lorraine. In 1791, when the County of Créhange was erected in Seigneurie, the princes no longer lived in the castle. The latter was partly destroyed in the Revolution. Only ditches and a single round tower still remain today. A small path behind the church will lead you to these places, despite everything, the power of the lords of Créhange, comparable to the splendour of the families of Amal, Wied-Runkel and Ostfriese. The visit to the military theme is free.
