Introduction
The economic development of Metz reached its peak in the 12th and 14th centuries, engendering an aristocracy who built sumptuous residences like the hotel de Heu. Built in the mid-15th century in a Gothic style combining older elements, by a family of patricians originally from the Meuse area, the residence was purchased in 1661 by Anne of Austria who installed a Seminary of the Mission of St. Vincent de Paul here.
