This is where hemp fiber was once extracted by soaking the plants in ponds. A few information panels provide more information on this craft as well as the flora and fauna that have since settled there. Overall, this is a well-designed and informative site.

The cult of the Virgin is ancient in Lorraine, particularly on the Hill of Sion. The apparitions of Lourdes after those of La Salette mark the souls of a very Christianized population in the countryside. Pilgrimages to Lourdes gained momentum in the 1880s. In 1883, there were 1,600 pilgrims from Lorraine. The momentum was given. The idea naturally came to evoke or reproduce the Massabielle cave. https://www.bruley.mairie54.fr/fr/la-replique-de-la-grotte-de-lourdes.html

Belonging to the Séré de Rivières system, it is a belt fort of the stronghold of Toul. Dominating the threshold of the Passage de Foug, it controlled with its neighbor, the fort of Domgermain, this passage crossing the coasts of Toul. (wiki)

The Sainte-Reine cave or Sainte-Reine hole is the second natural cavity in the department of Meurthe-et-Moselle in terms of known development and has been classified as a historic monument since 1910. It has several entrances classified under the general name of "Caves known as Trou de Sainte-Reine" and was originally part of an endokarst under the bottom of the Moselle valley.
