The railway has served its purpose - and cyclists are happy about it.

After a few km on this section I got the feeling that it was a former railway line. And right, it was the Seltz - Walbourg route on which a cycle path was created. Wonderful to drive.

Here there is a church, a bakery, a pizza and milk vending machine and a bicycle shop in a small space. What more do you need on a bike tour?

The cycle path runs on the former small railway line Seltz-Hatten. In Niederroedern you can still see the sign "Restaurant de la Gare" on the empty house.

best path quality, shady in the forest. That's fun.

In 1778, the architect Charpentier designed the plans for a mixed church. The building, built in 1787, incorporates the ribbed vaulted choir of a previous sanctuary. Destroyed during the Second World War, a new Protestant church was built in 1961 on the site of the old sanctuary. A new Catholic church, dedicated to Saint-Gall, was built in 1962-1963 by the architect Pillon. It has the largest post-war stained glass window in Alsace. The stained glass windows, produced by master glassmaker Tristan Ruhlmann, and whose sketch was produced by Joseph Jochum, parish priest from 1950 to 1998, are unique in their artistic aspects, but also for their biblical and ecumenical representation.

Alsace became French again between 1648 and 1681, after the Treaties of Westphalia. Under the domination of Louis XIV, the following system was instituted: in Protestant localities where at least seven Catholic families are installed, the choir of the church is assigned to them by order of the King of France. We then speak of simultaneous church by reference to the simultaneum, name of this liturgical regime; the sanctuary becomes mixed and requires the reinstallation of Catholic worship, even in localities with a strong Protestant majority.
