ROCHER DU HELFENSTEIN
Descriptif
On the same ridge, to the side of the Falkenstein, is Helfenstein castle, "the rock that brings help".
In 1410, this castle was built with the money from the villagers in Butten, Kirspach and Birsbach, the Duke of Lorraine's fieifs. It was destroyed in 1435. Several signs can still be seen: walls, a well, carved steps in the rock...
