As it reaches Messein, the Moselle, coming from the Vosges, comes up against a limestone hill. It flows around this limestone ridge towards the west, where it originally joined the Meuse at Pagny-sur-Meuse. A major geological event in the Quaternary caused it to leave the Meuse watershed and curve eastwards. The Moselle joins the Meurthe at Pompey.

In this loop lies the Haye plateau, which slopes gently from west to east, following the dip of the limestone strata to fall into "cliffs" over the Nancy conurbation.
