Graufthal Troglodyte Caves

Highlight • Other

The Graufthal troglodyte caves consist of a series of cave-like structures carved into sandstone cliffs. They were originally created in the 18th century by local villagers who sought refuge in the natural rock formations.

Graufthal Troglodyte Houses

Highlight • Historical Site

The Maison des Rochers can be visited for €3 per entry. It actually forms a set of three so-called semi-troglodyte dwellings. They remained inhabited until 1958 but today are only house museums restored and fitted out with period furniture. The settings found in these buildings echo the legends of the region.

Graufthal

Highlight • Settlement

Small village with houses in the rocks and two remarkable restaurants. The Maisons des Rochers are the greatest curiosity of the village. The caves of the escarpment, first used as warehouses, were transformed into dwellings from the 18th century. The last resident, Catherine Ottermann, died in 1958.
