Arzviller (in French pronounced as /aʁzvilɛʁ/; German: Arzweiler) is a commune in the Moselle department in Grand Est in northeastern France.
Its particularity lies in its Franco-German influences and its Germanic dialect, which make it, along with the other villages in the region, a cultural exception.
Arzviller is located in the historic region of Lorraine and is part of the pays de Sarrebourg.
The village is close to the Saint-Louis-Arzviller inclined plane and the rock of Dabo. It is an hour's drive from Strasbourg, Nancy and Metz thanks to its proximity to the A4 highway and the RN4.
Throughout the year, Arzviller is animated by the St. John's Eve celebrations, the messti, the Christmas market and many other cultural and sporting events.
