Route de l'Oberstritten

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Very nice route, perfectly flat with a good surface. It's fun to drive. But be careful: there is a level crossing in the middle of the forest that closes quite suddenly.

According to tradition, Arbogast lived in the seventh century as a hermit in the forest of Haguenau, near a large oak tree. His exemplary way of life led to his appointment as Bishop of Strasbourg. In fact, Arbogast can be considered an important force in the Christianization of the Alemanni. So he founded in Surbourg the first Alsatian monastery, in Strasbourg he had the church dedicated to Mary on the site of today's cathedral magnify. But he probably never lived in the forest of Hagenau. In fact, towards the end of the Middle Ages, hermits settled in the forest called "La Forêt Sainte" and near the "Gros chêne", the big oak tree.
The large oak tree, which stood here for several hundred years, fell to the ground in 1913, struck by lightning. Your stump is protected by a small metal roof today. The memorial stone dates from the 19th century, the Arbogast chapel from 1955.

Knights' Gate

Highlight • Monument

The gate tower, built around 1235 after the construction of the 3rd enclosure, served as a powder keg and from 1763 as a prison. The dungeons of the time have been preserved on the upper floors. The adjoining house was built in 1763 as a prison and gave access to the dungeons of the tower. Both served as a department prison until World War I.

Easy hike with little elevation gain. Most of the route is on forest roads and trails with plenty of shaded areas.
