Kutzenhausen

Kutzenhausen covers an area of 7.2 square kilometers with a population of approximately 924 inhabitants, situated in the Outre-Forêt region at elevations between 147 and 215 meters above sea level.

The commune traces its origins to medieval possessions linked to Wissembourg Abbey, with its name possibly deriving from the ancient toponym Goten hause, and historically included neighboring villages until administrative restructuring in the 19th century.

The village features the Maison rurale de l'Outre-Forêt heritage interpretation center, a Protestant church built between 1763-1765, and a Catholic church Saint-Georges constructed from 1903-1905 in neo-Romanesque style.

The municipality is accessible via departmental road D28 and benefits from nearby SNCF train stations at Soultz-sous-Forêts, with the current mayor Pierrot Sitter overseeing local administration and community development projects.

The commune maintains a twin town relationship with a Bavarian locality established in 1987 and preserves remnants of 19th-century oil extraction activities including wooded slag heaps that operated until the 1970s.
