Description found on the Alsace Heritage Inventory website:
The site, in the forest, is made up of several ruined buildings (lime kilns and housing buildings) located on either side of a path. The whole forms a valley approximately 6 meters deep. Several lime kilns are aligned on one side of the valley, each including: 2 low furnaces buried in the lower part (base of the device surrounded by a small embankment) which was originally covered by a wooden frame of which it remain the crows in the wall; loading of the blast furnace was done through the mouth made at its top (at the level of the top of the valley). The inner tank has the shape of a well built of bricks. Two buildings (probably housing) rise on the other side of the valley, each 1 storey, made of rubble, with window frames in yellow sandstone. Metal beams supported the floor.
