Pope to bring his message for Europe to Metz, on Luxembourg's doorstep
Pope Leo XIV will end his 25-28 September trip to France in Metz, celebrating Mass at the Cathedral of Saint-Étienne in a leg dedicated to European reconciliation and the legacy of EU founding father Robert Schuman. The Moselle city sits inside Luxembourg's cross-border catchment, putting a papal gesture toward a divided Europe on the Grand Duchy's doorstep.
