Tips from the Community
Fewer and fewer trails accessible by mountain bike (trees across, barbed wire signs, etc.) because of the lord who privatizes as much as possible

the hiking trail is quite nice by bike. Great view over the small town and on the left side the trotting track. Old walls are described at the top of the viewpoint. Additional information can be obtained in German, French and English using the QR code.

Perfect for a little cleaning session on Sunday morning! Everything goes to Gravel but maybe not later in the season if there is more mud!

Founded in 1143 in the wooded Thar Valley, the Abbey of La Lucerne is a witness to Anglo-Norman architecture, between Romanesque and Gothic. Since 1959, for the third time in its history, this exceptional ensemble has benefited from remarkable preservation and restoration work to offer one of the most complete examples of medieval Premonstratensian architecture in France. Listed as a Historic Monument in 1928, the abbey strikes with the strength of its history led by passionate men. The emotion is born from the absolute simplicity of the architecture, its great luminosity and the preserved authenticity of its environment. Your entrance fees contribute to the preservation of the abbey by supporting the "Fondation Abbaye de La Lucerne d'Outremer", owner, which is in charge of its restoration, management and maintenance. Visitors can discover a 5-hectare monastic complex, preserved in its green setting on the edge of the forest: the Gatehouse and the courthouse, the church, the refectory, the cellars, the park crossed by an aqueduct, the abbey lodgings with the lake, the guest room and the dovecote.

Built in the wooded valley of Thar, the whole is hardly visible from the outside. It is therefore by entering the enclosure that one can appreciate the harmony and charm of this abbey saved from ruin by Father Lelégard who acquired it and launched the restoration in 1959 thanks to the gains obtained by participation in one of the first televised games, The head and the legs.
