Discover the campsite Lac de Seigneurie in the Belfort region
What to visit during your stay in Belfort?
From the Lac de la Seigneurie campsite, set off to discover the Territoire de Belfort and the town of Belfort (15 km away), a land of contrasts with a wealth of heritage. You will discover all the secrets of the impregnable Citadel of Belfort, Vauban’s masterpiece. Whether you are a history buff or simply curious, you can admire the fortress as well as the town and its surroundings from the panoramic terrace or with the little Belfort tourist train. At the foot of the citadel stands the famous Lion of Bartholdi, created by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi in 1880. It is a symbol of freedom and of the resistance of the Belfort troops against the Prussian army. Today it is the emblem of the city of Belfort and is one of the favourite monuments of the French.
In the old town, you will discover some interesting and attractive buildings but also the large public squares with cafés, bars and restaurants where you can taste the Franc-Comtoise cuisine.
