Where to stay in Borny
The right area depends on your trip — here's what each neighbourhood is best for.
Borny is housing, school and pitch. Nothing on its register reads as lodging: the piscine du Bon Pasteur, the COSEC Paul Valéry and the complexe sportif de Belletanche belong to daily life in the quarter rather than to anyone passing through, and the lac Symphonie is a place to walk rather than to book beside. Metz holds the rooms. A stay in the city keeps the Technopôle and the campus Bridoux inside a short run out, which is how most visitors reach Borny at all.

About Borny
What are the main landmarks in Borny?
One church, then sport. The Église Saint-Pierre de Metz is the single piece of ecclesiastical building the register gives Borny, and everything after it is municipal: the complexe sportif des Hauts de Blémont, the gymnase du Technopôle, the COSEC Dauphiné, the COSEC Paul Valéry and the piscine du Bon Pasteur. Two city stades are numbered rather than named.
The lac Symphonie, the centre socio-culturel de la Corchade and the centre social petit Bois complete a list written for the people who live beside it.
What is the history of Borny?
Metz never dated Borny's beginning. What Borny keeps instead are names fixed to its buildings, with the lycée professionnel Jean-Victor Poncelet, the école Maurice Barrès and the COSEC Paul Valéry carrying personal names into a quarter built for schooling and sport. The institut national des jeunes Sourds is here.
Supelec and the campus Bridoux put teaching beside the Technopôle, and the register that names them says nothing at all about what stood on the ground before.
Where is Borny?
The lac Symphonie, the campus Bridoux and the Technopôle share the ground that Metz calls Borny. Hauts de Blémont lies among them.
