Discover 1,000 years of mining history at this unique site in the Vosges. The museum combines a permanent exhibition with a guided 125-metre underground tour of a historic silver mine. You will see original tools, an impressive collection of objects, and the famous engravings by Heinrich Gross from 1529, which realistically depict life in the mines.

Nestled in a valley between wooded hills, this peaceful village is a gateway to the Vosges. During the First World War, it was close to the front, which is still visible in the area via bunkers, trenches and memorials. Today, Ban-de-Laveline is a popular base for hikers and cyclists, with routes to the Col d’Hermanpaire, the Spitzemberg and the nature reserve around the Tête de Raves. In the village itself, you will find a sober Église Saint-Laurent, a classic Monument aux Morts, and a peaceful atmosphere that invites you to explore.

The Combrimont town hall stands on the site where the former hamlet of Bonipaire was officially transformed into an independent municipality in 1848. The building is simple in design, in keeping with the rural character of the village, and together with the nearby Calvary cross it forms the symbolic heart of the community.

Originally built in the 12th century, this church was rebuilt and expanded in the 18th century. The square Romanesque bell tower was raised in 1712 and topped with a striking onion-shaped dome, built by Polish carpenters at the initiative of Stanislas Leszczyński, King of Poland and Duke of Lorraine. The church was badly damaged during WWI, but was restored in the 1920s. Inside, you will find stained glass windows by Frères Ott (Strasbourg) and murals in friezes. The church has been protected as a historical monument since 1995.

La Petite-Fosse – Front village with memory This small village in the Vosges (altitude: 440–870 m) has barely 80 inhabitants, but played a prominent role during the First World War.

Today it is a peaceful place with a view of the surrounding mountains.
