"On the 3 Abbeys road, beside the Rabodeau river, stands the majestic and elegant baroque church of Moyenmoutier. Founded in 671 by Saint Hydulphe, this middle monastery has hosted the learned elite of the Benedictine order several times in its history. The elegant simplicity of its church, which has the dimensions of a cathedral, contrasts with its exceptional furniture, in particular the organ and 17th century choir stalls. The Abbey of Moyenmoutier is open daily throughout the year from 10:00 to 17:00 (closed occasionally from 12:00 to 14:00). "

This building which is situated in the forest between Moyenmoutier and Senones, is the vestige of a 7th century priory which was found by a disciple of Saint-Hydulphe. The chapel was renovated and expanded in1921 by Abbot Varenne.

This chapel situated in the Clairefontaine forest was built in the middle of the 19th century and is a place of pilgrimage on the 15th of August. It was dedicated to the Madonna.

Flamboyant gothic art is well represented in this chapel dedicated to Saint-Richarde. A shrine placed on its altar contained the relics of the Saint. She was founder of the Andlau monastery and in the 9th century she installed 13 canons and 1 provost in Etival which then lost its independence to the Alsatian monastery. The painting on the shrine is from Claude Bassot. It represents Saint-Richarde enduring the fire test.

In 1516, the 5-sided gothic choir replaced the flat front of the church. Two series of glass windows can be seen: those ordered in 1993 and those damaged during Wold War I were installed in … 1982 !

The military cemetery “La Poterosse” in Senones was created in 1920. It groups the remains of 795 French, 7 Polish, 11 Romanians and 6 Russian soldiers all Wold war I victims. Next to it, the German cemetery hosts 784 graves and the remains of 744 soldiers in an ossuary.

"On the 3 abbeys road in Etival, the Roman abbey rises in all its beauty on the banks of the Valdange river. When it became an important abbey of the Prémontré Order in 1147, Etival had already crossed the paths of important figures like Saint Odile or Saint-Richarde, Empress and queen of France. Having crossed the threshold of the 18th century facade, you will be surprised to discover a beautiful roman abbey church, enriched by architectural evolution throughout the centuries: roman columns, gothic choir, choir stalls from the 18th century, cloister garden and fortifications... Etival Abbey is open all year from 10:00 to 17:00 "

At the heart of the abbey, you will find a beautiful parc with beautiful trees.

"In 640, Gondelbert did not imagine that its monastery would become a powerful Benedictine Abbey of Lorraine, coveted by kings, lords and bishops until the French Revolution. Today, visitors can still take a walk in the grand court, the cloister or the garden and admire the stairway of honour, the abbey palace and the huge library of this remarkable18th century architectural complex. In the heart of the town, the abbey of Senones can be discovered all year round, either independently or with a guide and visits are available for groups by appointment. "

This place tells the story of the precious bicycle which "run alone" through an exhibition of different models of VéloSolex.
