    Woerth Chateau

    This castle, listed as a historic monument in 2002, dates back to the 14th century. It was restored after the Thirty Years War, and again after a fire on the first floor apartments. At the Revolution, the castle was sold in several lots. It was restored once again in 1925 before being acquired by the city in 1977, where the town hall and social services were installed. Today, it also houses the Museum of the Battle of August 6, 1870.

Sensitive areas

Along your trek, you will go through sensitive areas related to the presence of a specific species or environment. In these areas, an appropriate behaviour allows to contribute to their preservation. For detailed information, specific forms are accessible for each area.

A quiet zone is not a legally mandated area; rather, it refers to areas considered conducive to the activities of sensitive species that have a critical need for quiet (feeding, migration, reproduction, giving birth, raising young, hibernation, and seeking mates).


Adopt the 5 “Quiétude Attitude” best practices and help preserve the peace and quiet of wildlife!

No. 1 I familiarize myself with quiet zones and the regulations
No. 2 I stay on marked trails
No. 3 I respect the silence of nature
No. 4 I keep my pet on a leash
No. 5 I prioritize daytime activities

The “Quiétude Attitude” program raises public awareness about the best practices to follow in natural environments to preserve the tranquility of animal species.
