En un regard
Le château en bref
On the heights overlooking the Moselle valley, between Metz and Thionville, Luttange Castle retains a remarkable medieval silhouette. Its keep and three towers were built in the 14th century by the Luttange family; in the following century, the Perpignant family added an oval tower. In 1539, Emperor Charles V bought the castle and gave it to Jean Monet, his valet de chambre and court painter; the estate then passed to the families d'Attel and Cabane. The façades were remodelled between the 16th and 19th centuries. Since 1965, a long-term restoration has been carried out, which notably reinstated 16th-century elements from the Château de Daspich, in Florange. The façades and roofs of the postern, the interior gallery and its access staircase have been listed as historic monuments since 2 November 1979. Owned by the commune, the castle is run by the association Les Amis du château de Luttange.
