Eguisheim

Highlight • Other

The historic village center is completely car-free. This not only preserves its medieval charm but also makes strolls more relaxing—no traffic noise, just cobblestones, half-timbered houses, and flowers.

Half-Timbered Houses in the Ring Alleys of Eguisheim

Highlight • Settlement

What makes Eguisheim special is that these half-timbered houses are built in concentric circles around the former castle of the Counts of Eguisheim. This creates a unique street pattern that invites visitors to wander around the village in circles. The houses are often painted in bright colours and richly decorated with flowers, wooden shutters and wrought iron signs. Each house seems to tell its own story, and together they form a harmonious whole that gives Eguisheim its fairytale appearance.

Altstadt Eguisheim

Highlight • Settlement

The stork is the symbolic animal of Alsace. The people here believe that the stork was present at the crucifixion of Jesus. Of course, that's why they honor him so much. Adebar also breeds in other regions of France, such as along the Atlantic coast.

Gueberschwihr

Highlight • Settlement

The village of Gueberschwihr is cited as such in the 8th century. Many nobles established their residence in the 11th century. Sign of the rich soil, many religious orders and houses and possessions were tithe in wine. This wealth attracted envy and the village was plundered several times during wars.

Today Gueberschwihr, medieval picturesque village is a feature of the Route des Vins d'Alsace. Nestled in the hills in lush greenery, this charming village has retained its original charm and authenticity invites you to discover its rich heritage: half-timbered houses, carved porticos, remarkable architecture and flourishing vineyards delight the eyes of the curious. Overlooking the village square, the spire of the 12th century novel, the jewel of the village, is an essential step for the Route Romane d'Alsace.

Some beautiful sections, but also some rough gravel paths, about 1/3 of the tour.
