Travel back in time as you explore restored semi-troglodytic houses, witnesses to Graufthal's past.

This area was used as warehouses in the Middle Ages, and then as dwellings after the ravages of the Thirty Years' War. In the 17th century, masonry work transformed these shelters into dwellings, which were still occupied in the early 20th century, and in one case until 1958! A visit to these houses will give you an idea of the harsh living conditions endured by their occupants at the time. These three semi-troglodytic houses, clinging to the pink sandstone wall, have been restored and revived in color. Two of them have been refurnished, while the other houses an exhibition.

Ein Besuch lohnt sich auf jeden Fall. Auch wenn man relativ schnell durch ist. Mit 3 Euro Eintritt (Beschreibung auf deutsch kostet nicht extra) kann man einen örtlichen Verein ruhig unterstützen

Belle visite en famille

Es ist ein wunderschöner Ort! Alleine der Ausblick auf das Dorf! Der Preis ist vollkommen gerechtfertigt (3€ p. Erwachsener). Die Kassiererin ist sehr sympathisch und die Häuser in einem guten Zustand! Ich komme gerne wieder! Merci beaucoup pour cette visite très génial!!

Visite courte et riche en découvertes (sur la fabrication des allumettes en particulier)

Joli endroit pittoresque lorsque l'on s'intéresse au patrimoine.
Plein de possibilités de balades en boucle autour des villages alentours..le circuit des fontaines..ou bien longer la vallée qui mène de graufthal à lohr avec un peu de montée.. passer par petersbach avec ses nombreux pas de porte en grès...redescendre dans la vallée (par contre je ne saurais vous dire combien de km)
Et s'arrêter au café des rochers (à côté de l'église qui mérite une visite) et déguster leurs bonnes pâtisseries ou même un Burger ..ils sont trop bons et le cadre est génial...bonne visite !!
