In Metz, on the southwest side of the inner city is the Esplanade, from the beautiful terrace of which there are views of the Moselle valley and Mont St-Quentin (350 m/1,150ft; view). On the north side of the Esplanade is the 18th C. Palais de Justice (Law Courts). To the south is the church of St-Pierre- aux-Nonnains, originally a Roman basilica or an early Christian church, which belonged to a Benedictine abbey founded in the seventh C. In the 16th C. the church was incorporated in the town's defenses.
