A 15th-century legend attributes the scratches on this rock to the devil, who, during the expansion of the Schauenberg chapel in 1515, tried to throw the stone onto the construction site. Suddenly softened, it could not be lifted, hence the presence of prints and its name “devil's stone.”

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.

Absolutely stunning and charming historical village! The buildings are not only beautiful, but also so well preserved. It was very quiet when I was there - probably just because it was a Sunday. Nevertheless, it didn't seem as "full" as some as the other villages along the route. That's a great thing for sightseeing, but maybe not so great if you're looking for food or supplies.

This well-preserved city gate marks the historic entrance to the old town of Gueberschwihr. Originally built as part of the medieval defensive structure, the gate today offers an atmospheric view of cobbled streets and half-timbered houses. A photogenic point that perfectly introduces your passage through this charming wine village.

Legend tells that on full moon nights, fairies, or White Ladies, come to dance around the Langenstein. During this ceremony, the stone is said to begin spinning!

This wine village originated at the end of the 9th century. There are still some old wine-growing houses. The apse of the church (13th century) is decorated with floral friezes and has a blind gallery and slender columns. The notches in the stones of the apse (lower part) suggest that the wine-growers sharpened their knives here.
