Tips from the Community

May 24, 2025, Église Saint-Pierre d'Altrippe

Overlooking the charming village of Altrippe, the Church of Saint-Pierre makes no secret of its uniqueness: a round tower. The Romanesque-style building was constructed in 1450 and enlarged in the 19th century. Taking the path south, you'll find the Calvary at the highest point in the village. It was erected in 1898 by Abbot Colbus and his parishioners following a mystical vision.

The Welschof Pond is a little corner of paradise for fishermen and ducks. It was built in the 1930s to serve as a reservoir for the Maginot Line's defensive flood control system.

The Rue de l'Étang divides the pond into two parts. In the northern part there are many small fishing shacks. You can take a nice walk around the southern part.
