Origin and history

The statue of Saint-Maurice is a religious work of the early eighteenth century, located in Soultz-Haut-Rhin, in the Haut-Rhin department. It is located precisely at 63, rue Lattre-de-Tassigny, a central location in the commune. This monument, typical of Alsatian sacred art, reflects the artistic and spiritual traditions of the region at that time.

Registered as a historical monument since May 5, 1931, the statue enjoys official protection that underscores its heritage importance. It belongs to the municipality of Soultz-Haut-Rhin, which indicates its anchoring in local life. Although the sources do not specify its sponsor or sculptor, its inscription bears witness to its historical and cultural value.

The location of the statue, originally associated with the rue du Ballon before being listed at its current address, suggests a possible urban reorganization over the centuries. Its state of conservation and its visibility in the public space make it a significant part of the landscape of Soultz-Haut-Rhin, inviting to discover the religious and artistic history of Alsace.
