The Cernay National Cemetery is a memorial dedicated to the soldiers who fell during the battles of Vieil-Armand and Steinbach in the summer of 1914. Created in 1920, it was designed to house the bodies exhumed from temporary military cemeteries in the region and was reorganized after World War II to include soldiers who died between 1940 and 1945. This cemetery contains 2,238 French bodies, as well as Czech, Russian, British, and Serbian combatants. Two ossuaries contain the remains of 938 combatants.

Sarcophagi from the Merovingian period were discovered near the church, as well as a burial ground from that period in the vineyards of Petit Pfaffenheim. It was first mentioned in 1186 as Pfaphinheim. The place name Petit-Pfaffenheim in the vineyards east of the village recalls the abandoned small settlement of Klein Pfaffenheim. No traces remain of the castles of Presteneck, Hertenfels, and Meyenheim known from the documents; at Laubeck, only the remains of a round tower and the moat remain. A leper hospital is mentioned in 1578.

The granary was built in the 15th century and altered in 1569 by Simon Haegli and Glade Badt. Striking stepped gables adorn the building. The main entrance on the upper floor of the house, currently used as a museum, is now provided by an open staircase on the northern gable end.

Eguisheim is definitely worth a visit. Its beautiful old town is a must.

The gate was part of the city fortifications; the other two gates were demolished in the 19th century. Only the lower part of the Porte de Thann dates back to the 13th century; the superstructure with its battlements and battlements was added in the 16th century. After the destruction in the First World War, the city gate was restored, and only three of its four floors were rebuilt. A museum was established in the building (Wikipedia).

Very nice bicycle path with lots of signs to make sure you can ride without stress and just enjoy the scenery :)

Unfortunately not drinking water, but you can still use it to cool down during the warm months. If nothing else, it's still a beautiful sight!
