Nº 95 Au fil du Doubs

Stage 4: Soubey – St-Ursanne

Just before St. Ursanne, the Doubs makes a sharp 180-degree arc as it if were unsure where to go. Perhaps this radical change of direction is the reason why the Romans called the meandering river the Doubs. The word comes from the Latin dubitus, the hesitant, the doubting.

Nestled in an unspoilt natural setting on the banks of the Doubs river, the small medieval town of Saint-Ursanne has preserved its treasures.
