Mulhausen

Mulhausen, an Alsatian village with a rich and complex past, has successively belonged to Celtic Gaul, the Roman province of Upper Germania, the Bishopric of Strasbourg, the Landgraviate of Lower Alsace, and then the Bas-Rhin department. Its exact origins remain difficult to establish due to a lack of significant Celtic traces.

However, in the Rothbach forest, one can observe the remains of a pagan wall, probably contemporary with the more famous one at Mont Sainte-Odile. Additionally, Alsace was crossed by many Roman roads, including the one connecting Saverne to Niederbronn-les-Bains, which passed near the village.

Mulhausen's heritage notably includes three sandstone pillars marking the entrance to the old castle, a funerary monument dedicated to Wolff Caspar Blicker von Rothenburg, lord of the place who died in 1609, and his wife Anna née Wöllwart, who died in 1600, as well as a fountain erected in 1844 in tribute to harmony.
