Haut Saint-Pierre

Haut Saint-Pierre is a mountain summit in Moselle that reaches about 325 meters high and offers views across the surrounding landscape and valleys in all directions. The site includes a chapel and is surrounded by walking trails that guide visitors through the area.

The site is tied to the region's past, especially through a Lorraine cross that honors soldiers from World War II. This memorial was placed in the 1970s as a reminder of those events.

A chapel built in the 1800s sits near a cemetery where locals have been buried for generations. These two structures together tell the story of the people who have lived in this area.

The site is reached by a walking trail that starts from a nearby village and takes several hours with clear signage for visitors. It is best to wear comfortable shoes and allow plenty of time, as the path goes through varied terrain.

The site attracts photographers who come for the clear views of the night sky and use the elevation to capture sky events. The low light pollution makes it a good spot for taking photos after dark.
