From the cycle path, you can see the old Saar barges. These were built between the two world wars. They were previously pulled by hand on the canals and rivers; they were said to be towed (hence the name towpaths), now rehabilitated as cycle paths.

Crossed by the Saar River, the town offers a picturesque setting with its landscaped banks and historic center, which blends traditional architecture with industrial remains.
