The Langenstein menhir (a 4-meter-high long stone) was erected in 1904 by a Soultzmatt industrialist, who recognized this block as an overturned menhir. 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!

The Rose Garden of the Bride and Groom in the Heart of the Parc du Millénaire The Rose Garden of Hearts is part of a landscape project in the Parc du Millénaire in Eguisheim. It is located on the former industrial site.

The sandstone Grossfels (Big Rock) peaks 400m above Soultzmatt

Grossfels means big rock. The Grossfels overlooks Soultzmatt at an altitude of 400m. It is made of pudding stoneware. From a simplistic explanation it is Sandstone encrusted with pebbles. The access trail, although easy on foot, requires fairly good mountain biking technique. There are many hairpins and rocky steps.

Langstein means long stone. According to scientists, the block was extracted approximately 1km from its location. Its erection dates from the Celtic period, around 560 BC. It was rediscovered in 1904 lying on the ground by Fritz Keller, an industrialist from the region. It was straightened in 1906. A host of legends are linked to this Menhir. Listing them here would be too long.

Impressive sandstone quarries with a beautiful, winding forest path.

The old quarries have now become a climbing site.
