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.

Pagan Wall Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Other

Fascinating wall from the Celts. Built up here - however who did it? !!!
The trail along the wall is sometimes very difficult to drive or some passages are not manageable you have to walk down steps and carry the bike otherwise very demanding!
