A very idyllic little town on the edge of the Vosges Mountains. Lovely alleyways and plenty of cafés and restaurants invite you to take a short break.

Mont Sainte-Odile Abbey

Highlight • Religious Site

The monastery was built in the 7th century by Odilia, a daughter of the Frankish Duke Eticho, in the Hohenburg, which had been given to her by her father for this purpose. The place was used as a nunnery until the Middle Ages and later named after Saint Odilia, the founder of the monastery and patron saint of Alsace.

The Chapelle Sainte-Odile (Odile Chapel) with the remains of St. Odilia, the Fontaine de Sainte-Odile (Odile Spring), is located below the monastery and is designed to relieve the eye.

Mount Sainte-Odile

Highlight • Settlement

Fantastic view. Historical and cultural highlight.
The monastery complex now also houses a hotel and a restaurant. The monastery can largely be visited freely and there are many corners to go 'into yourself'.
The place is widely known and popular, so it is usually well frequented.

Heathen Wall Loop

Highlight • Historical Site

These remnants of a wall, standing so deep in the forest, exude a peculiar fascination, especially since the age, builder, and purpose of the structure remain unclear to this day. More detailed information can be found on the following website:

But here, too, the conclusion is: many attempts at explanation, little real knowledge. Yet that's precisely what makes it so intriguing. For me, it was an interesting conclusion to our visit to Mont Sainte-Odile.
