Jüdischer Friedhof Oberbronn

Highlight • Other

The Jewish cemetery in Oberbronn was established in the 17th century.

The Jewish cemetery is located on the Rue des Fontaines, the road to Zinswiller, about 200 meters after leaving Oberbronn.

Oberbronn has had a Jewish community since the 17th century. In 1860, it had more than 200 members out of a total of 1200 inhabitants.

In addition to the Jewish cemetery, in the old town you can find evidence of the Jewish community such as markings on the entrance doors and a mikveh in a private house.

The old synagogue from the 17th century was replaced in 1841 by a larger one, which was bombed in World War II and then rebuilt as a school.

The Jewish cemetery is located on the Oberbronn Historical Circuit.

Kloster Oberbronn der "Schwestern vom Göttlichen Erlöser" (Oberbronn's Kloster)

Highlight • Other

In 1849, Elisabeth Eppinger, Mother Alphonse Maria, founded a religious order in her hometown of Bad Niederbronn in Alsace, the "Sisters of the Divine Redeemer".
From the beginning, their main concern was the poor, the sick and the disadvantaged. Through their devotion to those who need their help, God's merciful love should be experienced. Today, the "Niederbronn Sisters" live and work in Europe, Africa, India and South America.

Wasenkoepfel Observation Tower

Highlight • Summit

In the old days, when the trees were smaller, there was probably a nice view here. Today, we only see the tops of the trees.
Nevertheless, it is a beautiful place that is worth a detour. You will also find a bench to rest on.

Grand Arnsbourg Castle

Highlight • Castle

The castle ruins are about five kilometers west of Niederbronn-les-Bains, on a mountain spur above the Zinsel du Nord valley, on the GR 53 long-distance footpath, at an altitude of 356 meters. Due to a risk of collapse, the access staircase having been removed, the ruin cannot be visited.
