Description - City-breaks in France  
Description of activity "City-breaks in France"  :   Metz, city of glamour, seduces by its elegance. Fringed with gardens, set with waters, the old town goes hand in hand with the European one, and adds to this urban chic a "haute couture" event : the Centre Pompidou-Metz (opening in 2009).
Saint Stephen's Cathedral shows splendid stained glass windows from the 13th till the 20th century (including some of Chagall).
The Imperial District (around the railway station), is a remarkable illustration, completely preserved, of the Germanic town planning of the beginning of the 20th century. It offers an extraordinary encyclopaedia of the historical or new styles, and is candidate to the classification on UNESCO's World Heritage List.
The Museums "La Cour d'Or" shelter wonderful and original treasures.
