A lovingly furnished grotto for the little dwarves

Beneath the forest canopy, you can discover numerous traces of bygone times, still visible or legible; only the "barracks" have disappeared. During a guided tour with one of the site's enthusiastic volunteers, you can explore the underground tunnels and discover the organization of this impressive military infrastructure. Of course, you can also visit the surface infrastructure yourself, following the marked route, where the panels provide detailed explanations. An application, "Site du Grand Canon de Zillisheim," is also available for download.

In 1913 and 1914, following the ideas of Johann Knauth, architect of Strasbourg Cathedral and curator of the M.H., the nave, the side chapel of the Sacré-Coeur, the Saint-Joseph Chapel in the basement, and the sacristy were rebuilt in the Gothic style by the architect Alexandre Louvat from Mulhouse. The old Gothic nave, remodeled in the 18th century, was decorated with murals dating from 1491. To the south of the choir was a small chapel dating from the 14th and 15th centuries, with cross-ribbed vaults on consoles. To the north were the remains of the old priory cloister. On the site of the present Sacred Heart Chapel was the 18th-century Mount of Olives, the rood screen of which was removed in 1861.

@Koblinator regarding main roads: yes, but it must be made very clear that the French 1. consider and respect cyclists more than the Swiss (in my experience) and 2. therefore always drive very generously around them (changing lanes to the left). After 17 years of racing, constantly on the Swiss-French border, my clear conclusion is...F = Tour de France country...

This site is the location of a “KW” cannon of the “Kaiser Wilhelm Geschutze” or “Max le long” type whose mission, during the First World War, was to fire large detonations at Belfort to provide a diversion during attacks. on Verdun and the forts of Vaux and Douaumont.

The Château de Ferrette is one of the oldest in Alsace. The ruins of the upper castle offer a superb panorama of the Vosges, the Black Forest and the Jura. The lower castle has several round towers open at the throat and equipped with fire hydrants. Allow 45 to 60 minutes for a self-guided visit to the castle.

The rocks of the Grotte des Nains form an impressive gorge, approximately 25 meters high. According to legend, the little women of the earth lived here with the Erdmanala (little men of the earth). The gorge gives access to the Plateau des Nains and a beautiful view of the Ill valley.

Attention: this is a main road between Hésingue or the motorway feeder at the Euroairport and Ferrette. There is a corresponding amount of traffic, which also likes to travel at more than the permitted 90km/h. And the road isn't particularly wide or good for overtaking cyclists. I strongly recommend only staying on the route for as long as absolutely necessary and preferring to take the detour via Muespach-le-Haut - which is much more attractive in terms of scenery!
