Follow the guide!

Today, we leave on the tracks of the inescapable of Contrexéville. Equipped with our phones and the Izi.Travel application, we select the route “Les 1000 facettes de Contrexéville”, and on our way to the first step!

The Tourist Office as a starting point

It all starts in front of the Tourist Office. It is there that we meet Contrexéville, a lady of great age, but resolutely modern. She will be our guide throughout our walk through the streets of the city, looking for the blue hats signaling the riddles to be solved. We turn off the internet connection on our phone, and begin our immersion in the heart of the heritage.

As we wander around and stop, we look for all the clues that allow us to answer the riddles. Fountains, church, thermal gallery, hotels, nothing is missing… The children have a great time answering, while we play the role of the Lady Contrexéville, who tells her story according to the monuments and characters.
