You can see from the railing that this bridge is getting on in years. - Get over there quickly before it gets wet.

This 15th century château was one of the few spared by Richelieu at the end of the Thirty Years' War. It has a superb 20-hectare park-garden.

Footbridge reserved for bicycles and pedestrians which allows you to reach Varangéville by avoiding the large bridge. Very nice view of the Marne-Rhine canal and the basilica of Saint-Nicolas-du-Port.
