Introduction

The Palais de Justice de Metz is housed in the former Palais du Gouverneur de la province des Trois Evêchés. It retains a somewhat austere, majestic appearance, with decor symbolizing military power, such as trophies and the deities Mars and Minerva, gods and goddesses of war in Roman mythology. From here, La Fayette left in 1775 to fight for the independence of the United States of America.
