The Sundgau ponds

Highlight • Other

This region has hundreds of small fishponds, once created by monks in the Middle Ages. Today they form a patchwork of water, reeds and forest – a paradise for birds, cyclists and those seeking peace and quiet. You cycle along quiet banks, see herons take flight and enjoy local specialities such as fried carp along the way.

Start of the Voie Vert

Highlight • Other

At the start of the long Voie Vert route on the former railway line between Dannemarie and Pfetterhouse, you'll also find the Dannemarie town sign with a small statue. From here, keep left until you reach the actual cycle path.

The former restaurant with the common and popular French name "Au Cheval Blanc" has definitely seen better days. Its location right at an intersection can't be attributed to a lack of traffic, or perhaps it was precisely that. It would be interesting to learn the history of the building.

This picturesque washhouse was built in the 19th century. It replaced an old washhouse from 1680 which housed 20 washerwomen. A real journey through time!
