Metz - Saint-Pierre-aux-Nonnains


Saint-Pierre-aux-Nonnains is the oldest existing church in France - and one of the oldest in Europe. When the first building got erected ~ 380, it was part of Roman thermal complex. The structure then was converted into a church in the 7th century when it became the chapel of a Benedictine nunnery. The nave got reconstructed and an apse added in the 10/11th century.
The church got severely damaged in 1552, when Charles V´s toops besieged Metz. The convent got dissolved and from then on the church was used as a warehouse. It got finally restored in the 1970s and now is open for concerts and exhibitions, - when it is not locked.
