In Moulins-lès-Metz, the Fabert castle recalls the conflicts of the Metz region at the end of the Middle Ages. Built between the 15th and 16th centuries, it served as a forward base during the siege of Metz in 1489, when Duke René II of Lorraine made it his headquarters. Only the facades and roofs are now protected, which gives an idea of what can be seen from outside.
