Also striking about the square are the arcades on the ground floor, which have existed since the Middle Ages. This creates a gallery that lines the square on both sides. Within these, various catering establishments and shops are still located today. Source and further information here: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Place_Saint-Louis_(Metz)

Very relaxing. Not necessarily recommended for small children, though, because of the water. 😁

Of the original 17 city gates, only the German Gate in the east remains. Named after the former hospital of the Teutonic Order, which stood nearby, it was built as an entrance to the city on a bridge over the Seuille River. A medieval structure straight out of a picture book.

Former water tower used to supply steam locomotives in the adjacent main station. Future use is still being planned.
