The Ipoustéguy arts centre is a multipurpose facility designed for every form of cultural expression. Since 2001, it has housed the world's largest collection of works (bronzes, marble sculptures, watercolours and charcoals) by Jean Robert Ipoustéguy, an internationally famous sculptor and artist who was born in Dun-sur-Meuse in 1920. He was a workaholic, creating 600 sculptures and hundreds of watercolours, drawings and paintings. His works can be seen all over the world, in the largest public collections and in cities known for their connections with the Arts e.g. Tokyo, Washington, Paris, Berlin, London etc.

In 2023, this 200 m² space will host an exceptional documentary exhibition on Nazi concentration camps and extermination centers, produced by the Fondation pour la Mémoire de la Déportation. There will also be an exhibition on the Algerian War and the Marine Commandos. There are also numerous documents (archives, photos...), war memorabilia, a historical fresco...

Located within the fortifications built in the 10th century high above the town, this massive church was commissioned in 1346 by the Lords of Apremont.

Its organ and ornate furnishings date from the 18th century. It also has two huge sculptures by the modern artist, Ipoustéguy, entitled "The Death of Bishop Neumann" and "Christ".

Guided or self-guided tour of the 12th-century Romanesque building, in a majestic setting on the banks of the Meuse, just a few kilometers from Avioth, Montmédy or Marville, and close to the fortress of Dun-le-Chastel and Notre-Dame de Bonne Garde. The church of Notre-Dame de Mont-devant-Sassey was built in the foothills of the Argonne between the 11th and 13th centuries. The Romanesque abbey church overlooking the village is in the Rheno-Mosan style, with 3 naves and double massing. Despite successive periods of construction and its defensive upgrade in the 17th century, as well as wars and looting, it has survived to the present day with great homogeneity and sober elegance. The church is a treasure trove of Romanesque and Gothic architecture and sculpture: the pentagonal 12th-century choir is covered by a cul-de-four roof, the openwork crypt (or lower church) and the Sedes Sapientiae it houses are remarkable, the 13th-century nave's simplicity bears witness to the Cistercian influence, and the 13th-century sculpted portal is the oldest preserved in Lorraine. In summer, the Young Heritage Ambassadors welcome visitors and give guided tours from 2:30 to 6:30 pm. Self-guided or guided tours for individuals or groups are available outside opening hours, all year round, on reservation with the Friends of Mont Church.
