At the location of the former Capuchin convent, Antoine Gérard, director of the faience factory from 1785, has the castle, orangery and outbuildings erected. The site is occupied from 1620, the date of the Capuchins' installation, of which there remain from the establishment a vaulted room, former water reception basin, dated 1728, and partially the piping. Rarity of this type of building in Lorraine.
