Hintere Badstube and Place de la Liberté

The Ohmbach, once an active watercourse, supplied a bathhouse called Hintere Badstube.

It also served as a washhouse and supported various water-related trades such as butchers, tanners, dyers, and millers. A pedestrian passage, supported by pillars, ran beneath an overhanging house before leading to the Place de la Liberté.

This area forms a picturesque ensemble, marked by a lingering medieval atmosphere.

Since ancient times, a communal well was located here; the remains of its modern pump recall its existence. The lime trees, planted in 1919, are known as the "trees of Liberty."

The square served as a "stube," meaning a "neighborhood guest room," where residents gathered for evening gatherings and celebrations.
