TOUR PANORAMIQUE DU GRAND WINTERSBERG

Towers to visit

The tower of Greater Wintersberg, which rises to over 580 metres above sea level, was erected in 1890. It is the highest point in the Northern Vosges. At the top of this 25-metre high tower, a remarkable panoramic view of the whole area awaits you. On a clear day, you can see the Alsace plain and the blue line of the Black Forest. By road, access is via the Liese Pass. Close to this pass you can see the Liese Rock, a sandstone monolith with a bas-relief probably dating back to Gallo-Roman times. Vandalized in 1944, it was restored in 1970. This rock was probably intended for the cult of fertility.
