During the First World War, the pass was strategically important: the Bayerische 39. Reserve-Division controlled the passage here with bunkers and trenches, remains of which are still visible today. The area is rich in relics such as machine gun bunkers, barbed wire posts and shelters from 1916. The pass is also popular with cyclists: the climb from Saint-Dié-des-Vosges is 10.6 km long with an average gradient of 2.9%. Along the way, you can enjoy peaceful forests, historical traces and views of the Spitzemberg and the Tête de Raves.

Since the 13th century, a hospice was maintained there by the church. and welcomed pilgrims, travelers and the city's sick. At the request of the inhabitants of this suburb, a church was built there, while a new, more spacious hospital was erected on the right bank of the Meurthe. The church was dedicated to Saint-Martin and was consecrated in 1728. On July 14, 1895, during the National Day fireworks display, the church was set on fire by a rocket which hit the roof covered with fir twigs and burned to the ground. According to the plans of the Parisian architect Heubès, a new Vosges sandstone church was built in the "floral Romanesque" style and consecrated on August 13, 1902.

As early as the 7th century, Deodatus (French Dieudonné), who was revered by the people as a saint, is said to have founded a monastery here, from which a community of canons then developed in the 10th century. At that time the church wore the patron saint of St. Mauritius. The diocese of Saint-Dié was only established in 1777 by Pope Pius VI. († 1799) built. The church building, which was built in different architectural styles, was blown up by the Germans in 1944, destroying the entire nave and the choir area along with their vaults. The reconstruction lasted until 1974; in this year the church was newly consecrated. Most of the stained glass windows were made and inserted in the 1980s. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathedral_of_Saint-Di%C3%A9
