La ville est encore dirig\u00e9e par les <strong>Romains<\/strong>. Les habitants sont terrifi\u00e9s par la pr\u00e9sence d\u2019un inf\u00e2me dragon ayant \u00e9lu domicile dans l\u2019<strong>amphith\u00e9\u00e2tre de la ville<\/strong>. L\u2019air est vici\u00e9 par le souffle f\u00e9tide du Graoully qui r\u00e8gne en ma\u00eetre sur Metz. La situation semble sans issue, jusqu\u2019au jour o\u00f9 <strong>Saint-Cl\u00e9ment<\/strong>, <strong>premier \u00e9v\u00eaque de la ville<\/strong>, d\u00e9cide de prendre le probl\u00e8me au s\u00e9rieux.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mis au d\u00e9fi par un l\u00e9gionnaire de d\u00e9barrasser la ville de cet \u00e9pouvantable mal, Saint-Cl\u00e9ment retrousse ses manches et se met en action. Il se rend alors dans l\u2019antre du vil reptile, l\u2019amphith\u00e9\u00e2tre de Metz. Ni une ni deux, <strong>Saint-Cl\u00e9ment capture le dragon<\/strong> gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 son \u00e9tole et le tra\u00eene jusqu\u2019\u00e0 la Seille, un affluent de la Moselle. Ensuite, selon les versions, il noie le dragon ou lui ordonne de quitter d\u00e9finitivement la ville. Depuis ce jour, les Messins n\u2019ont jamais revu le Graoully. Chaque ann\u00e9e, ils c\u00e9l\u00e8brent sa mort au cours d\u2019une <strong>procession <\/strong>o\u00f9 ils vocif\u00e8rent des insultes \u00e0 son effigie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tout l\u2019int\u00e9r\u00eat de la l\u00e9gende du Graoully r\u00e9side dans sa <strong>symbolique<\/strong>. En r\u00e9alit\u00e9, la b\u00eate serait une <strong>m\u00e9taphore du p\u00each\u00e9<\/strong> et plus pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment du <strong>culte des idoles pa\u00efennes <\/strong>du temps des Romains. Saint-Cl\u00e9ment aurait alors \u00e9t\u00e9 envoy\u00e9 par Saint-Pierre pour d\u00e9barrasser la ville de Metz de ce culte et y <strong>imposer le christianisme<\/strong>. D&rsquo;ailleurs, Saint-Cl\u00e9ment n\u2019avait pas construit sa chapelle \u00e0 l\u2019int\u00e9rieur de l\u2019ar\u00e8ne romaine au hasard. Le fait de b\u00e2tir des \u00e9glises dans les b\u00e2timents romains \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9poque \u00e9tait une mani\u00e8re de montrer la domination du christianisme sur les religions pa\u00efennes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Sur les traces du dragon \ud83d\udc3e<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Si la l\u00e9gende du Graoully est bien fictive, le dragon n\u2019en a pas moins marqu\u00e9 Metz et ses alentours. Ses traces laiss\u00e9es dans l\u2019<strong>imaginaire collectif <\/strong>sont encore tr\u00e8s pr\u00e9sentes aujourd\u2019hui. La repr\u00e9sentation la plus connue de la cr\u00e9ature macabre (le nom Graoully vient de <strong>l\u2019allemand \u00ab&nbsp;gr\u00e4ulich&nbsp;\u00bb<\/strong> = monstrueux, macabre) se trouve <strong>rue Taison<\/strong>, \u00e0 quelques pas de la cath\u00e9drale de Metz. Une <strong>sculpture du dragon<\/strong> y est suspendue entre les immeubles. La croyance populaire attribue le nom de la rue aux exclamations des Messins&nbsp;: \u00ab&nbsp;Taisons, taisons-nous, voil\u00e0 le Graoully qui passe ! \u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Une autre effigie du c\u00e9l\u00e8bre dragon est notamment visible au <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fizzer.com\/fr\/journal\/visiter-chateau-haut-koenigsbourg\">ch\u00e2teau du Haut-K\u0153nigsbourg<\/a>, pr\u00e8s de Colmar. Dans la <strong>chambre Lorraine<\/strong>, le Graoully est suspendu au plafond, toisant les visiteurs de son \u0153il vert luisant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pour vous immerger davantage dans la l\u00e9gende, rendez-vous sur le <strong>parcours <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tourisme-lorraine.fr\/a-voir-a-faire\/loisirs\/balades-et-randonnees\/838163985-sur-les-traces-du-graoully-metz\">\u00ab\u00a0Sur les traces du Graoully\u00a0\u00bb<\/a> \u00e0 Metz.
