Couvent de Bischenberg, Religious convent on hilltop in Bischoffsheim, France
The Bischenberg Convent features multiple buildings with raised ground floor, square floor layout, and ribbed vaulted ceilings in its oldest sections.
The sanctuary's first written record dates from 1505, followed by the choir construction between 1506 and 1541 under Bishop Guillaume de Honstein's guidance.
The site includes a chapel dedicated to Our Lady of Seven Sorrows and contains a 15th-century polychrome wooden Pieta sculpture, registered as historical monument.
The convent grounds include a pilgrimage path, various chapels, living quarters, and agricultural buildings constructed throughout different time periods.
The Way of the Cross, established in 1732, stands as one of the earliest examples in Alsace, surviving multiple restorations through religious and pilgrim efforts.
