Three cultural trails have been created in Plappeville to help visitors discover the picturesque village in the Pays Messin; accompanying brochures are available at the town hall. Cultural Trail No. 1 runs through the village’s paths and lanes, making its architectural heritage accessible.
Culture and History
The Château de Tignomont, also known as the Maison du Chapitre de la Cathédrale, is part of the historic townscape. It was built between the late 16th and early 17th centuries and is listed as a historic monument. Plappeville also has two washhouses, which were formerly used for washing clothes and as meeting places for the washerwomen. The church has been listed as a historic monument by decree of 28 October 1980.
Le Migomay dates in its essential structure from the 16th century and the first quarter of the 17th century. The building is of historical importance in connection with the history of Protestantism and is considered the only surviving evidence of the beginnings of Protestantism in the metropolitan area. Le Migomay was listed in its entirety as a historic monument by decree of 22 November 2002.
The Fort de Plappeville overlooks the city and the Moselle basin. Access to the Fort de Plappeville remains prohibited to the public.
Nature and Trails
The Plappeville arboretum was established in 1980 and is primarily dedicated to native species. A bat educational trail begins at the arboretum and introduces visitors to the bats’ natural habitat. The former pumping station is also part of this theme: it serves as a bat refuge and is equipped with educational information panels.
A circular trail passes through the village’s various fields and local areas and explains their significance or the origins of their names. A forest excursion follows the paths of Mont Saint-Quentin. The ascent to Les Hauts de Woicon offers views of Plappeville, Mont Saint-Quentin and the city of Metz.
Wine and Tradition
A wine route runs through Plappeville near vineyards that have been replanted by an association. The Winegrowers’ Brotherhood maintains the tradition of the grape harvest and the Feast of Saint Vincent.
