OUR GUIDED TOURS IN BELFORT
The Citadel of Belfort
Walk through the corridors of Vauban’s military engineering. Walk from half-moons to bastions, and from ditches to curtain walls, to discover the only example in France of the Second System of Fortifications of this genius.
The Historic Heart of the city
In Belfort, the historical heritage is concentrated within the Old Town surrounded by the ramparts. Discover the history of Belfort in the alleys of its old town, setting of the many treasures of Belfort.
In the Lions’ Footsteps
Dust off the façades, wander through the alleys, look up and you will discover more than a hundred sculpted, painted, engraved lions… Sometimes vestiges of the past, sometimes decorative elements, they are mischievously hidden.
Industries of yesterday, today and tomorrow
Immerse yourself in the heart of the industrial heritage of which Belfort and its Territoire are so proud. Spend half a day on the Techn’hom site. Take a walk through the Alstom workers’ village and discover that it is in Belfort where most of the power plants in the world are built.
Relive the economic boom of Belfort by diving into the real estate heritage of this 100-hectare park. Workers’ towns, Alsatian-style streets, emblematic DMC buildings… are on the agenda.
Optional: visit to the Museum of Mechanography, heritage of IT industry in Belfort. Trace the history of the computer!

OUR VISITS AROUND BELFORT
The Frédéric Japy Museum in Beaucourt
In 1977, Frédéric Japy moved to Beaucourt and produced watch blanks but above all machine tools which were faster and less expensive. He then mechanised the production of complete watches and then alarm clocks, clocks… A true captain of industry of the 18th century, Frédéric Japy still remains the emblematic figure of early industrialisation.
The Agricultural Museum in Botans
This museum exhibits the stages in the development of agricultural machinery over the last 200 years as well as all the tools of life in the past. 100 machines and 1700 objects, tools for milking cows, milk processing, veterinary instruments…
The Craftsmanship and Traditions Museum in Brebotte
This 19th century farmhouse, whose main building comes from Boron, shows the typical architecture of the rural house in the south of the Territoire de Belfort. Through its collections, this museum evokes an endangered know-how and illustrates the daily life of our ancestors.
The Forge Museum in Etueffont
Four generations have succeeded one another in this building in Etueffont, at the foot of the Vosges, since the 17th century. In a living space where house and workshop were one, they have left the trace of their know-how. Demonstration of the blacksmith possible.
The Mill in Courtelevant
In the south of the Territoire, the mill in Courtelevant immerses visitors in the history of industrial and hydraulic techniques, from the 17th to the 19th century: millstones, gears, bucket wheels and many other grindings!
