Kirchberg

First mentioned in 1321 as Kirchberg, this Alsatian village consists of several districts: Langenfeld, Hohbuhl, Hecken, and Strueth. Until the French Revolution, it was under the abbey and lordship of Masevaux. For centuries, its economy was mainly agricultural before industrializing in the 19th century, notably driven by Mayor Moritz and later the Eininger and Zeller families from Oberbruck. The weaving activity in Langenfeld ended in 1951, while the Koehler-Bosshardt factory developed from 1924 on the site of an old forge.

Among local figures, episcopal vicar Jean-Henri Weiss (1761-1847) is the most famous, being one of the last French clergymen to retract the constitutional oath.

The commune offers two main tourist attractions: the Saint Vincent church and Lachtelweiher lake.
