フランカルトロフ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ15

Viewpoint from one of the many bunkers along the Marginot Line. On a clear day, the view from here is fantastic, stretching all the way to the nearby Vosges Mountains. Even the Donon and Dabo peaks are easily visible to the naked eye. This shady spot with its bench is also perfect for a short break.

When I passed the ordeal was no longer there 🤷🏻‍♀️

A very beautiful sandstone cross from the 17th century.

On the old Roman road, now transformed into a cycle path, three crosses bring two local legends to life. To learn more, you'll have to lift your foot to read the information panel. The site was rehabilitated in 2007.

Beautiful hike combining villages, forests and ponds on mostly tarmacked or gravel paths.

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what motivated people to erect “their” cross at this spot. (...) These wayside crosses were erected as visible signs and attract the attention of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and aims to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who has overcome death (...). The cross is part of our lives, just as it was part of the life of Jesus. So I hope that many people ... will visit the wayside crosses, whether as places of silence and breathing before God, whether as places of community gathering, prayer and praise of God.” (Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig in: “Wayside crosses... small sacred monuments as signs of popular piety”)

Three crosses on the Herrenweg, a Roman path, destroyed in the Second World War, rebuilt in 2007 on the occasion of the new construction and expansion of the path as a cycle path.

In 1621, Duke Heinrich II granted market rights to Isming, but the town then suffered during the Thirty Years' War. During the war, an officer saved the city archives in the town hall tower via an underground passage and was able to hold the town for a long time, but then it was also depopulated and the town hall was destroyed. In 1664 there were only 80 households. This cross was erected in front of the south-west entrance to Albestroff, where the old chapel destroyed by the Swedes is said to have stood.
