Geography
The village is positioned approximately ten kilometres to the west of Molsheim, on high ground overlooking the Bruche valley. To the west is the great domainal forest of Haslach.Unusually in Alsace, this is one village not traversed by a numbered departmental road: it does, however, overlook the former Route Nationale N420 in the valley below, a long distance road rendered less important in recent years by the development of the autoroute network: in 2006 this stretch of road was formally downgraded to become the Route Departmentale RD 420.
