Le Bonhomme

According to tradition, Le Bonhomme was founded by Saint Déodat, bishop of Nevers around the year 600, nicknamed the "Good Man" by the locals, which inspired the village's name. He is also credited with founding Saint-Dié in the Vosges. An ancient Roman road crosses the commune, evidence of its occupation since Antiquity.

The first written mention of Le Bonhomme dates back to 1317, during a transaction concerning Gutemberg Castle, whose ruins are still visible today. From the Saint-Nicolas church, a hike leads to the castle. Located at the foot of a mountain pass, the village was a major crossing and trading point between Alsace and Lorraine in the Middle Ages. Today, it offers many trails to explore the surrounding landscapes.

Le Bonhomme also bears the marks of the Battle of the Tête des Faux, marked by heavy bombardments. A hike allows visitors to discover traces of this conflict.

Nestled in the heart of the Vosges Mountains, the commune is close to the Lac Blanc resort. In winter, alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, sledding, rail sledding, and snowshoeing are possible. In summer, the Bike Park attracts downhill mountain biking enthusiasts with its varied trails.
