Grange de Chèvremont, Medieval granary in central Metz, France

The five-level stone structure features numerous small openings, battlements on top, and massive Jaumont stone pillars supporting open storage platforms.

Built in 1457 to store grain reserves, this building demonstrated the economic power of Metz during a period when the city had 30,000 inhabitants.

The ground floor of the granary now houses a collection of medieval religious sculptures as part of the Musées de la Cour d'Or.

Located on Rue Chèvremont, the granary maintains its original interior layout with four bays supported by rounded arches at ground level.

The building includes defensive elements such as battlements and thick walls, reflecting architectural influences from medieval structures in Siena, Italy.
