About Metz
Stained glass
The Green City
Centre Pompidou-Metz
How many cities can claim the largest expanse of stained-glass windows in the world? Metz can, in its Gothic Saint-Stephen Cathedral, and that is only the start. The city at the meeting of the Moselle and the Seille has been a Celtic oppidum, the Merovingian capital of Austrasia and a cradle of Gregorian chant, and it wears both French and German influences with ease.
The feeling Metz leaves is one of green and water: it earned the nickname The Green City for its open grounds and public gardens, and its historic centre is one of the largest pedestrian shopping areas in France. The Porte Serpenoise and the Abbaye Saint-Arnould speak of older centuries, while the Centre Pompidou-Metz brought modern art to town.
Wearing Metz means carrying the Centre Pompidou-Metz and a cathedral full of coloured light on the same street plan, a few minutes' walk apart.
