Eguisheim, one of the most beautiful atypical villages in Alsace, takes its claim to fame from its architecture, preserved from the ravages of history and intelligently preserved.

The town of Eguisheim is surrounded by hills covered with vines and overlooked by the Three Castles.

Kaysersberg means the Emperor's Mountain, it is a village with a crazy and exceptional charm which is very famous for its Christmas market

The Sainte Croix Church, the Place de l'Eglise, the fortified bridge, the half-timbered half-timbered houses, the birthplace of Albert Schweitzer are located in its magnificent historic center with its imperial castle (Kaysersberg) which overlooks the city.

Riquewihr is said to be “Most beautiful village in France” also owes its name of “Pearl of the Alsatian vineyard” to its preserved heritage.

Riquewihr, a city with perfectly preserved surrounding walls, reveals its half-timbered houses from the 13th to the 18th century, closely adjoining as you cross the main street.

The vine already exploited since the 8th century has shaped the city called La villa de Richo which is at the origin of the name of the city of Riquewihr.

Ribeauvillé is at the heart of the Alsatian vineyard.

The Grand-Rue, the old 15th century corn exchange, the beautiful 16th century fountain, the church of the Augustinian convent, the butchers' tower and the place de la sinne are the most grandiose places and moments.

You can also observe the 3 castles in the heights of the city which belonged to the Ribeaupierre family.

The Château du Haut-Kœnigsbourg was erected in the 12th century, this castle was for centuries the place of conflicts and rivalries between lords, kings and emperors.

It is a historical monument, going through the Haut-Kœnigsbourg gate means plunging into the universe of the Middle Ages with the presence of the lower courtyard with its inn, its forge and its mill, its bridge- levis, its arms room, its dungeon and its cannon which recall the moments of this

fortress which was besieged, destroyed and looted during its history.
