This small hill is known in the region as an ancient Roman camp, certainly because of the Roman road located nearby. However, no remains have been found to date.

This old Roman road, now converted into a cycle path, is a delight for people who use it. It is also the ideal place to observe the three surrounding mountain ranges: the Vosges, the Black Forest and the Jura.

This 35 meter high oak tree is around 250 years old. Initially planned for slaughter in the spring and then autumn of 1939, the project was abandoned with the start of the Second World War.
