Metz Cathedral

Cathedral of Saint Stephen
France, Metz
The majestic Gothic cathedral of the XIV century, located in the historical center of the French city of Metz. It is noteworthy that the religious building was formed from two churches - St. Stephen, built in the XII century, and the old Romanesque church. The 14th-century German glassmaker Hermann de Münster and the Renaissance artist Valentin Bush had a hand in the stained-glass windows. In addition, in the middle of the 20th century, 19 stained-glass windows were made especially for the Metz Cathedral by the famous avant-garde artist Marc Chagall.

The cathedral is located in the very center of the city on the Square of Weapons and is very harmoniously integrated into the city ensemble. Backlighting at night completes the impression. Opposite the main entrance, a tourist train stops, on which you can take a sightseeing tour of the city, there is a guide in Russian. The cathedral seems huge, and the yellow color of the stone gives it a sunny appearance. Its nave, 41.41 meters high, is the third largest in France. Higher only in the cathedrals of Beauvais and Amiens.
