Culture and History

The Nécropole Nationale in Natzwiller contains 1,118 graves of French women and men who died during deportation at KL-Natzweiler or in other camps.

The Centre européen du résistant déporté (CERD) presents the history of the resistance in Europe against fascist and National Socialist rule across 2,000 m² of exhibition space.

The former Natzweiler-Struthof concentration camp in Natzwiller is now the Musée des Déportés. The former concentration camp is protected under the French system of historic monuments.

The Chapelle de Notre-Dame de Lourdes in Natzwiller probably dates from the late 19th or early 20th century.

Trails and Landscape

The Chemin des Déportés leads for approximately 4 km from Rothau railway station to the former camp. Information panels explain the history of the trail; it serves as an introduction to visiting the memorial site.

The Chemin des Déportés also forms an 8 km circular hiking route with 350 m of elevation gain.

The Sentier panoramique invites visitors to discover the local trees and plant life and offers views of the Rothaine Valley landscape.

A variant of the Sentier panoramique allows visitors to make a round trip to the former granite quarry of the Struthof camp.

The C22 hiking trail connects the former Auberge du Struthof, which became the gas chamber, with the former pink granite quarry, passing through the grounds of the former Natzweiler-Struthof concentration camp.
