Hiking
The Seyssel barracks, named after General Count Seyssel d'Aix (1776-1855), was the largest military barracks in the fortress and still offers the viewer an impressive sight with its 284 m long front. The wings of the building are bent at an angle of 45 degrees. The foundation stone for the Germersheim fortress was laid about 100 m from the middle of the building in 1834. Raised 100 years later, it finally found its home in front of the Ludwigstor.
