A magnificant convent high up on the mountain worth a visit when in Alsace especially from Obernei. More

Nice view over the valley. Peace and quiet. Take the time to walk inside and learn about Sainte-Odile. More

A wonderful place af quiet and peace, with a magnificient view. Different forest-trails can lead to the place, that's a cool hike to do. More

Just 45 minutes drive from Strasbourg lies the beautiful convent Mont Saine Odile. Perched on a mountain top, it has a fantastic view over the area. The path leading up to the convent is lined with statues marking the 12 (or is it 13 or 14?) stations, the path of Christ's crucifixion - if you're into that, if not it's... More

The convent on the tip of the rock at Mount Ste-Odile has been there for a few centuries (twelve, or so). It sits on the spot that had earlier been the fortifications of a paleolithic culture dating back much further.

Mont Sainte Odile probably would've had breathtaking views, if we hadn't picked a day where the fog was so thick you couldn't see people a couple of feet from you. That aside, Mont Sainte Odile was OK. The little chapels with beautiful mosaics were really interesting, and I enjoyed those the most. However, the whole place was way too touristy,... More

I managed to persuade my family to drive up from Ottrott and it was more than worth it - even the 13-year-old became interested and appreciated the awe-inspiring views when we were inside at the top. We all loved the pretty tiny grotto-style chapel in the grounds with its beautiful mosaics. Once you step through the main archway into another... More
