This neo-Romanesque synagogue was built in 1897. It was the third synagogue to be built in Soultz-sous-Forêts. The half-timbered houses surrounding it were inhabited by members of the Jewish community who migrated from the countryside after World War II.

At the marked spot there is "only" the town hall. The more interesting village center, which is usually shown in the pictures, is somewhere else. I will make a suggestion for a change.

Mothern borders Germany. The Rhine forms the country's border. In the past, the river branched into numerous main and secondary branches. There were at least two settlements on the former riverbed, called Haut-Village and Bas-Village. As is well known, the Rhine was straightened according to plans by the engineer Tulla, so that Mothern grew much later to a population of almost 2,000 people. Today, tourism plays an important role there. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mothern

Pleasant, partly shaded route through the forest, crossing typical villages of Northern Alsace with half-timbered houses decorated with geraniums in the windows.
