Fantastic view. Historical and cultural highlight.
The monastery complex now also houses a hotel and a restaurant. The monastery can largely be visited freely and there are many corners to go 'into yourself'.
The place is widely known and popular, so it is usually well frequented.

On the large terrace of the monastery is the Gnomonic monument, which contains several sundials. Built in the 18th century, the monument dates back to the former Neuburg Abbey near Hagenau.

The monastery was built in the 7th century by Odilia, a daughter of the Frankish Duke Eticho, in the Hohenburg, which had been given to her by her father for this purpose. The place was used as a nunnery until the Middle Ages and later named after Saint Odilia, the founder of the monastery and patron saint of Alsace.

The Chapelle Sainte-Odile (Odile Chapel) with the remains of St. Odilia, the Fontaine de Sainte-Odile (Odile Spring), is located just below the monastery and aims to alleviate eye diseases.
