The Citadel of Belfort is a historically complex building, reflecting five centuries of fortifications. It was built after the conquest of the city in 1687, replacing a medieval castle that previously stood on this rocky outcrop.

The Lion is the symbol of the city of Belfort. All Belfort residents are proud of this pink sandstone colossus. The Citadel and the Lion of Belfort were voted the French people's favorite monument in 2020.

The lion is the largest stone statue in France. As a symbol and guardian of the city, it is also a visual landmark and even invites you to take a city safari. Info: https://www.belfort-tourisme.com/de/entdecken/die-highlights/der-loewe/

A "chemin de halage", in German "treidelpfad", which runs alongside the waterway right next to the bed of the river or canal, was an indispensable part of the transport infrastructure in earlier times. Before ships could move using motor power, horses ran along the bank and pulled the ship against the current. This was called "treideln", and this is how the "treidelpfads" got their name, which has been passed down to this day. Where these paths directly on the bank have been preserved, they are often used by hikers and cyclists.

The Lion of Belfort is 11 meters high and 22 meters long and is the tallest stone monument in the country. It is best seen from the observation terrace, which is only open during the day. Admission costs €1 (as of 10/2024). The investment is worth it 👍.
