Thionville and Metz are the two pillars of the Moselle corridor, linked by the A31, one of France's busiest motorways with cross-border workers commuting daily to Luxembourg. Thionville, a former stronghold and steelmaking city, is Lorraine's third-largest conurbation, nestled in the Three Borders Country where France, Luxembourg and Germany meet. Its 14th-century Belfry and Tour aux Puces attest to a rich medieval past, while the U4 Blast Furnace at Uckange, illuminated by artist Claude Levesque, recalls Lorraine's steel epic. Metz, Moselle prefecture and former capital of the Kingdom of Austrasia, is a major art city. Saint-Etienne Cathedral, nicknamed the 'Lantern of God', has France's largest stained glass surface (6,500 sqm), with works by Chagall, Villon and Bissiere. Centre Pompidou-Metz, opened 2010 in Shigeru Ban's spectacular building, has propelled the city onto the international cultural stage. The German Imperial Quarter (1871-1918), with its monumental station and Wilhelmian buildings, is an architectural ensemble unique in France.
Route
Route Thionville → Metz
Your driver takes the A31 from Thionville towards Metz/Nancy. The motorway is entirely toll-free, following the Moselle valley south through rolling green hills and Lorraine villages. You pass Amneville-les-Thermes, known for its 2,000-animal zoo and thermal centre, then Hagondange and Maizieres-les-Metz before reaching greater Metz. Arrival is from the north, with Centre Pompidou-Metz visible from the motorway, its white undulating roof standing out against the Lorraine sky. Allow 25 min normally, but rush hours (7-9am, 5-7pm) can extend the journey to 35-40 min due to the massive flow of some 100,000 cross-border workers using this route between Luxembourg and southern Lorraine.
