To see:
THE LINTELS IN THE VOSGEAN HOUSES: The houses of Ruxurieux escaped the disaster of 1944. You can see several lintels (architectural elements located above the doors) in carved sandstone. On each, the construction date of the house was indicated.
THE VIRGIN OF HENNEFÊTE: This monument was inaugurated in 1920 following a vow from the inhabitants of Corcieux to raise a statue of Our Lady of Victories if the city was spared during the 14-18 war. The enemy was stopped on the ridge, and the inhabitants kept their word.
