Soultz-sous-Forêts
Soultz-sous-Forêts, a flowering Alsatian village awarded "2 flowers," combines industrial heritage with a rich tourist legacy.
Its historic center houses listed monuments: the synagogue, the Protestant church, the Catholic church, and the Muntz Kiener house, all witnesses to its multi-century past.
Several themed routes allow exploration of its treasures, from the salt trail marked by the Club Vosgien to paths dedicated to the history of local schools or the commune's historic sites.
Soultz-sous-Forêts is also the second Alsatian stop on the Way of Saint James to Compostela, offering a communal hostel for pilgrims seeking rest.
Local cultural life thrives year-round thanks to the La Saline relay, which offers screenings, plays, and children's activities.
During Advent, the Christmas market on General De Gaulle Square is part of the "Christmas in Outre-Forêt" event.
Easily accessible, the town has a train station served by the SNCF Strasbourg – Haguenau – Wissembourg line, a motorhome service area, and charging stations for bikes and electric cars.
