Museum offering an exciting and exotic journey through art and history

The Cour d'Or museum, located on the heights of the Sainte-Croix hill, the cradle of the city, is worth a visit during a tour in Metz. We start with the rooms of the Museum of History and Archaeology. They contain ancient furniture from local excavations or chance discoveries. The Gallo-Roman baths, funerary steles and numerous objects of daily life (terracotta ceramics but also sports accessories such as the strigille reserved for athletes' body care) are of course noteworthy. In a mystical and romantic atmosphere, statues are displayed in the attic of Chèvremont. The place also houses the medieval treasures of the hall of the year 1000, as well as Merovingian tombs. The museum of Architecture evokes several centuries of civil and religious art that can be discovered in a room with a painted ceiling. As for the Fine Arts section, it brings together several periods. The Flemish painting of the 15th century, the works of Jean-Baptiste Le Prince in the 18th century and the famous School of Metz of the 19th century: from Migette, a painter from Metz, to the great masters, Delacroix and Gustave Moreau, one of whose symbolist masterpieces is Oedipus the Traveler or Equality before Death (1888). The Cour d'Or museum is a must-see artistic stopover and is located next to a rich architectural heritage: the Chapel of the Trinitarians, the Chèvremont granary, the 17th century Carmel staircase and the former abbey of the Little Carmelites. Step through the door, a universe is open to you!

Magique ! Mais il vaut mieux prévoir deux visites et peut-être trois tellement c'est riche. Personnel aimable et compétent. Gratuit, ce qui ne gâche rien !
