Alsace has always been the scene of conflicts between the peoples of both sides of the Rhine. One of these, the Franco-Prussian War of 1870, has particularly marked the territory of Alsace Verte.From Wissembourg to Reichshoffen, which gave its name to one of the most important battles of this conflict, the battlefields are still visible today, marked by a very large number of monuments erected in honour of the men of the two camps who fell in battle. Testimony to the special fate of this border region. Inside the monument, a staircase leads up to the observation deck from which one has an overview of the entire battlefield of the Franco-Prussian War of 1870.
