Under the very rock, which forms a rock shelter, lived for a long time the hermit known as "the Falkenfels", from 1895 until his death in 1902. There is no certainty about the origins of Edouard Hinbeer, nicknamed friendly by the population and in the archives the Waldbruder (brother of the forest). A valiant man, he looked after the pigs of the commune of Hellert. The population esteemed him, considered him a holy man and took turns bringing him their midday meals.

From Wikipedia The castle site of Dagsburg is located in the northwestern Vosges in the Sarrebourg district above the town of Dabo (Vosges pronunciation for Dagsburg) at an altitude of 664 m on the plateau of the 30 m high sandstone rock Rocher de Dabo. The view is fantastic.

The road winds up the rock in a spiral shape and becomes a little steeper at the end. But the view absolutely makes up for the effort.
