An Alsatian resting bench is a type of public bench built in Alsace during the 19th century. On market or fair days, farmers, and especially peasant women, would travel to the towns or large villages where a market was held. Heavily laden, they brought their farm produce. The peasant women carried a basket on their heads, protected by a cushion (der Wisch), filled with bran and wheat chaff. The peasant men, for their part, carried their produce in a basket slung over their backs by two leather straps. During stops, the peasant women could place their loads on the lintel and then rest on the bench on the lower slab, usually in the shade of four linden trees. On either side stood two posts where men could place their baskets or where riders could remount their horses. In Alsace, there are two types of resting benches: those of the King of Rome (also known as Marie-Louise benches[1]) dating from 1811; those of Empress Eugénie dating from 1854.

The church of St. Gallen was first mentioned in Mackwiller in the 15th century. From 1697 to 1897, the church was mixed, until the construction of the current parish church of St. Gallen. It was built on the site of an ancient Roman building from the 3rd century. The choir is surmounted by a bell tower built in the 15th century from ancient materials. After a fire during the Second World War, the church was rebuilt in 1842 and then in 1958.

It is a historical stone table that is said to have been used in wood auctions in the past. There is a shelter right next to it, so the place is good for resting.
