The Church of St. Christopher was designed by the engineer Philippe Mareschal and built from 1727 to replace the Saint-Denis Collegiate Church. It opened for worship in 1750. Its façade, in the classical style with superimposed Doric and Ionic colonnades, is decorated with a triangular pediment bearing the king's coat of arms and religious motifs. This ornamentation was partially altered after the siege of 1870-1871. The towers were built between 1784 and 1788 (north tower) and in 1845 (south tower). The large organ is the work of the postman J.-C. Valtrin and has been restored and modified several times, notably in 1971 by François and Joseph Calinet and Kurt Schwenkedel. It was declared a historic monument by decree of 28 January 1930, erected as a basilica in 1952, and became a cathedral in 1979 following the creation of the Diocese of Belfort-Montbéliard.

This former railway line is now a car-free cycle path that takes you from Dannemarie to Pfetterhouse, past ponds, forests and typical villages of the Sundgau. The route is slightly undulating and well paved. You cycle through one of the most rural parts of Alsace, with plenty of chance to spot herons, dragonflies and carp.

The Port fluvial de Dannemarie is no ordinary marina – it’s an unexpected oasis along the canal, where boats bob gently and herons keep watch. For cyclists, it feels like a little refuge: a place to take a break from the rhythm of your pedals and take on the rhythm of the water. Here you can refill your water bottle, stretch your legs on a bench in the shade or a little further away at the restaurant, or just watch the sun play on the surface of the canal.

The name of Saint-CHRISTOPHE, to whom this cathedral (bishop's church) in Belfort is dedicated, means "Christ-bearer". According to the legend of the saint, he was a gigantic man and carried people across a river. One day a small child called to him and he carried it on his shoulders to the other bank. Amazingly, the child became heavier and he said he felt as if the weight of the whole world was on his shoulders. Then the child revealed himself to him as Jesus Christ, Savior and Redeemer of the world.

Really easy ride along the cycle way. Goes downhill from Pfetterhouse to Dannemarie. Enjoyable

There is a nice restaurant near the harbor.

The Porte d'Alsace boating lodge is located near Dannemarie, a central town with all the necessary shops. The lodge can accommodate around fifty boats of all sizes on three different pontoons. Drinking water and electricity are available to boaters (according to the terms and conditions defined by the local authority). A laundromat, restrooms equipped with showers, playgrounds, green spaces, and picnic tables are available to boaters and their guests.

Great impression of these locks with the lock keepers' houses. Gems and places to unwind. Just beautiful
