Best known for its industrial past for its architectural heritage, the valley Fensch account yet undiscovered treasures that deserve discovery.
Fameck A, the difference Morlang has a beautiful chapel dedicated to St. Nicolas. If the style novel is still easily found in areas of Toulois or western Vosges, it is more rare on the northern Lorraine (Note, however, also the Romanesque church of Mont-Saint-Martin near Longwy) . Built by the Benedictine
Gorze from 1186 to 1188, the chapel has undergone several changes Morlang and restorations during its long life. This is particularly the case in the thirteenth and seventeenth centuries. In the early seventeenth century particularly complements the beautiful gate that closes access to the space around the chapel along a late Renaissance style.
Like many religious buildings will be sold to the French Revolution and may well disappear after a demolition order in 1838. It is the action of an enlightened man, as he has always been to prevent the triumph of ignorance and contempt, Mérimée (who became famous for the heritage lovers), who saved the chapel. In 1950 the chapel will be fully restored.
Since then, a new restoration of magnitude occurred in the 2000s and the building has resumed all its splendor. Regrettably
urbanization simply inconsistent with and without small flags made from anarchic disfigure the area around the monument without any worries integration landscape (though the monument would be filed since 1846 ...). Damage even if it could be worse and pleasant views are still possible.
Discover the Heritage with a pleasure that adds to the surprise for those who have forgotten that Fensch Valley has a history that has not only 100 years and deserves at least as much to be known and recognized.
