The baroque castle of the Dukes of Lorraine is the largest in Eastern France and is considered the "Lorraine Versailles". It was severely damaged by a fire in 2003 and restored in the 2010s after high-profile fundraising campaigns. The castle and park are worth seeing.

The house still exists, but the restaurant has closed. A new one has opened in its place.

The canal is worth a bike trip - although the section between Nancy and Xouaxange does not offer such outstanding landscapes.
