Treasure hunt and trail game in Metz
Create an interactive GPS route in Metz. Your participants explore cathédrale Saint-Étienne, Centre Pompidou-Metz, Temple Neuf and quartier impérial with riddles on their phones.
Playing in Metz
The yellow stone of Metz gives the city a warm tint that changes with the hour. The Saint-Étienne cathedral is its main visible landmark, the Temple Neuf borders the lake, and the imperial quarter, near the station, shows a completely different architecture, inherited from the period when the city was German. The Centre Pompidou-Metz adds a contemporary building to this contrasting ensemble, rich in details to observe.
The old centre, the station and the lake are quite far from one another: choose a single area per game, or allow walking time between them.
Three route ideas in Metz
Light and stained glass of the cathedral
A game around the Saint-Étienne cathedral and its stained-glass windows. Teams observe portals, arches and colours, then look in the nearby streets for clues on the city's yellow stone.
The imperial quarter, another city
A route between the station and the avenues of the imperial quarter, searching for architectural details: towers, sculptures, façades. A surprising setting for groups who already know the old centre.
Modern contrast around the Centre Pompidou-Metz
A contemporary game for teens and adults: observation riddles around the Centre Pompidou-Metz and the neighbouring quarter, to be played on foot in contrast with the old streets of the centre.
