THE CHARM OF
THE MOUNTAIN

THE THOLY

Le Tholy was born around the middle of the 16th century following a large migration from Alsace. Our ancestors found a valley covered with forests culminating at 892 meters, an ancient glacial site located between Gérardmer and Rremiremont, they settled at the entrance to this valley then called "La Basse de Fleury".

They established themselves as a Catholic parish on December 16, 1663 and built their church on the site chosen by Saint Pierre FOURIER, priest of Mattaincourt, at Chaud-Costet (the hot side), then in 1669 Charles IV, Duke of Lorraine, ordered the constitution of the "Ban de Saint Joseph" which would become the commune "Le Tholy" in 1791.

Le Tholy is a commune of 1536 inhabitants, one of the rare villages in the Vosges built on a hillside, which is what gives it all its charm. Ideally located in the valley of the lakes (a few kilometers from Gérardmer) the village has the Vosges peaks as its focal point, including Le Hohneck (1,363m).
