Mural: Postcard

Highlight • Monument

This colourful mural depicts rural life in Plainfaing like a series of postcards. You can see the Vosgean cow by a stream, the rare capercaillie and the red deer, the king of the forest. At the top, a reference is made to the textile industry that was important in the region from the 19th to the 20th century. Modern leisure activities are also discussed: mountain biking, skiing and hiking. At the bottom, a tasty nod to local gastronomy: Munster cheese, kirsch and Lorraine stew. On the left, a tender detail: a tribute to the village nursery school.

Voie Verte de Plainfaing

Highlight • Other

This short greenway, built on a former railway line, offers a flat course that is perfect for cyclists. It links Anould to Fraize and then continues along a pleasant path to Plainfaing, in the heart of the Meurthe Valley. A peaceful route between nature and the heritage of the Vosges.
