Nice spot for a break and a drink on the terrace. Forest path to get there from Seppois-Le-Bas (to the left of the campsite)

This bunker is one of several in Bettlach. Like the others, it can be viewed inside. Since it's pitch black, a flashlight is recommended. There's also a bunker trail that takes you to two more bunkers in the forest.

There's absolutely no difficulty in this climb, which is impossible in name only. You just need to know how to manage your gears and it's a breeze.

This former mother church of Oltingue and three disappeared villages dates from the 13th and 14th centuries. The location is idyllic: surrounded by fields, an old cemetery and often with storks on the roof in the spring. Inside you will discover surprisingly well (?) preserved wall paintings, including a rare representation of the sacrifice of Melchisedech and a Last Supper from 1741. In the choir you will also find a wall tabernacle and a niche for liturgical objects, silent witnesses of medieval rituals. The Gothic arched windows and the neo-Gothic vault are reminders of later restorations, while archaeological excavations in 1989 revealed traces of older sanctuaries and tombs from the early Middle Ages. simple but full of character.

The Bettlach casemate bears witness to the presence of the Maginot Line at this location. Designed to protect France from German invasion during the Second World War, it has two 75 mm cannons.
