The road passes through Pagny-sur-Moselle (see p. [109]).

The valley of the Moselle becomes prettier and prettier; varied scenery, picturesque landscapes and villages nestling in the sides of the hills. The road turns to the left and crosses the Rupt-de-Mad stream at Arnaville—the last village on the frontier since 1870, and the boundary of the old “département” of the Meuse.

It next passes through Novéant, where for a long time the German customhouse was installed. The village contains a château; in the church there is a carved ivory figure of Christ.
