Facts and practical information

The Sainte-Croix chapel is a Catholic religious building erected in the 13th century on the Sainte-Croix mountain east of Forbach in Moselle. By its position, it dominates the whole buttonhole of Warndt and, from the surroundings of the chapel, the walker benefits from an impregnable view on the region. The chapel is part of the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela from Saarland to Metz.
