Οι καλύτερες διαδρομές τρεξίματος Bitsch

Η ακρόπολη δεσπόζει στον βράχο και επιβλέπει την πόλη. Έχει υπάρξει συχνά θέατρο πολέμου και προστατεύεται ως μνημείο από το 1979.

A place with a historical background that has been beautifully arranged with some works of art and subtle lighting.

Starting point of our 5-pass loop towards Bitche

Visited on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the liberation by the US forces in March 1945. Michel Klein is a knowledgeable and caring curator of all the memorabilia donated by American and French families whose fathers, brothers, and uncles died and/or survived the conflicts that took place.

If you're interested in history, a visit here is worthwhile. A lot of the war is explained in film, with pictures, and with texts. I personally found it very interesting.

There was a lot of excursion traffic on Sunday. We took the route from Philippsburg via Erbsenthal. That was quieter!

Porte de Strasbourg - The Strasbourg Gate (1859) This gate is the only remaining part of the city's last fortification system. It was a drawbridge gate, and bullet holes from wars of the past two centuries are still visible. On the upper side of the gate is Memorial Room 39-45, which can be visited.
