Situated between the canal that links the Rhône and the Rhine, and the Rhine itself, the little village is situated some 20 kilometres to the south of Strasbourg.
During the early twentieth century many jobs were provided by the tobacco and sugar industries. There are currently still a few employment opportunities involving agriculture and tourism in the village. There is also an EDF hydro-electric installation incorporating a lock and a road crossing on the Rhine. Some residents work in Strasbourg and many commute across the frontier to work in Germany.
