Emerging from the forest at a height of 664 metres, the pink sandstone rock is a unique site. A Celtic place of worship, the Rock was topped in medieval times by a mighty castle, seat of the legendary county of Dabo. It was destroyed in 1690 on the orders of Louis XIV when the county became part of France. Today's neo-Romanesque chapel is dedicated to local Pope Leo IX. The Rocher de Dabo offers an imposing view of the vast Vosges forest and the Lorraine plateau. The Rocher can be seen all year round, but access to the platform is restricted in winter. Open from November to March. Access to the Rocher and the Chapelle is subject to a charge from March 29 to October 26. Guided tours for groups on reservation at the Tourist Office.
