Haegen

Nestled in the tranquility of the Vosges, the village of Haegen proves to be a perfect stop for hikers and cyclists seeking preserved landscapes.

Its trails, carefully marked by the Club Vosgien, invite exploration of remarkable historical sites.

Among them, the ruins of the Grand and Petit Géroldseck castles, perched on the heights of Haegen, are open to visitors year-round.

These remains recall the time when the Saverne region, then under the authority of the Archbishopric of Strasbourg, was a strategic and impregnable territory.

Other traces of the past, such as the Brotsch Tower, complete this archaeological panorama accessible from the village heights.

Haegen's religious heritage is also notable. The Saint-Quirin Chapel, a site of annual pilgrimage, attracts visitors just like the 12th-century cemetery chapel, which bears witness to local history through its ancient architecture.
