La Petite-Pierre

Highlight • Settlement

At the foot of the Northern Vosges lies the pleasant little town of La Petite-Pierre. From there, there is an extensive view of the forested mountains. This colorful town is very charming with its half-timbered houses, but it is small. It is said to have just over 600 inhabitants. There are around ten restaurants there. The Hôtel des Vosges deserves a special mention: it offers a breathtaking view of the wooded valley and the Lützelstein castle.

Rocher du Corbeau

Highlight • Other

From the rocky outcrop, there is a beautiful view of the wooded valley. Arriving at the Rocher du Corbeau from the valley, you reach the rock by a narrow and steep zigzag path.

Graufthal Troglodyte Houses

Highlight • Historical Site

The Maison des Rochers can be visited for €3 per entry. It actually forms a set of three so-called semi-troglodyte dwellings. They remained inhabited until 1958 but today are only house museums restored and fitted out with period furniture. The settings found in these buildings echo the legends of the region.

La Petite-Pierre Castle

Highlight • Castle

Built in the thirteenth century, the castle of La Petite Pierre and its fortifications were extensively modernized by Vauban in 1684. The castle was a strategic location that allowed control of a passage between Alsace and Lorraine. Found at: tourisme-alsace.com/de/217003784-Burg-von-La-Petite-Pierre.html. The Château de La Petite-Pierre is beautifully situated at the end of the road with a view of the valley. It lies extremely prominently at the end of a mountain spur that protrudes far into the valley. The castle, which did not suffer an artillery siege, is now the administrative headquarters of the Northern Vosges Regional Natural Park, declared a World Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO.
