    Hiking

    The cemetery was likely established during the early settlement period and expanded to 1.3 hectares at the beginning of the 20th century. Even today, some names, such as Jourdan or Roux, point to the village's first inhabitants. Others, like the village name itself, have been Germanized, for example, Braun, Berger, or Balzer. The oldest surviving gravestones in the cemetery, dating from 1745 and 1829, are now located in the churchyard of the Protestant church for their protection.

    Hiking

    Who are the Waldensians? I found what I was looking for on Wikipedia: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waldenser. Palmbach and Henri Arnaud are also mentioned there.

    Hiking

    On the Grünwettersbacher Straße there is a board of the recommended Waldensian path through Palmbach with various stations on the history of the Waldensians here. There you will also find tombstones from that time.
