Ideal place for a short rest or simply to pause. Its beginnings probably date back to the 8th century. In 1136, Pope Innocent II confirms to the Schuttern Abbey (Maria Hilf) the possession in Schopfheim with church and patronage. The parish church is first mentioned in documents in 1343. Since the 14th century, there has been a pilgrimage to the Mother of Grace Maria Hilf. In 1695, the parish church is described as dilapidated. It remained in ruins until 1750. *Around 1760, the choir was restored. After 200 years, in 1905, the roofless nave in the eastern part was covered. During the renovation of the choir, frescoes from the 16th century came to light. In 1962/64, the "nave" was covered and the church was renovated from the ground up.

The Bridge of the Two Shores is a modern pedestrian and bicycle bridge over the Rhine, connecting the cities of Strasbourg and Kehl. Its French name is „Passerelle des Deux Rives“. The curved steel bridge was opened in 2004 on the occasion of the State Garden Show and is considered a symbol of German-French friendship and European cooperation. It is approximately 387 meters long and was designed by Austrian architect Dietmar Feichtinger. Particularly striking is its elegant arch shape with an observation platform in the middle of the Rhine. From there, you have a beautiful view of the Rhine landscape, the two cities, and the surrounding Garden of the Two Shores. The bridge is used exclusively by pedestrians and cyclists and is a popular destination for walks, bike tours, and excursions.
