      The Col de Wettstein is a neighboring pass of the Collet de Linge on the notorious Lingekopf, next to the Hartmannswillerkopf scene of the most costly trench warfare in the Vosges in World War I. Also up here you can see a field of crosses of the French and German soldiers who died in the senseless carnage, which is probably not understandable for us today (the French cemetery is on the Wettstein).
