The municipality of Bousse (3,189 inhabitants in 2018; 881 ha; municipal website) is located on the right bank of river Moselle, 20 km north of Metz and 15 km south of Thionville.
Bousse was first mentioned, as Busse, in the annals of the Premonstratentian abbey of Wadgasse (located in present-day's Saarland, suppressed in 1792). The town was named for a convent where sinners repented, "Busse" meaning "penance" in German.
