    There are an incredible number of gingerbread motifs - and they taste good.
    And you can look for Hansel and Gretel on the house wall

    In Gertwiller, there's this gingerbread-decorated house! It's not the witch's house from Hansel and Gretel, but Lips, the local gingerbread maker. Gingerbread has been handcrafted in this house for 200 years.

    Next door is a museum dedicated to gingerbread and rural life in the past. There, you can see 8,000 objects: cake molds, pottery, tools from the past...
    Admission: €3 per person (2025)

    Enter and discover an extraordinary museum referring to gingerbread and the rural life of yesteryear. Michel Habsiger, passionate collector, exhibits some 10,000 objects over more than 350m²: old molds, pottery, tools from yesteryear's trades...

    In this house, gingerbread has been prepared by hand for 2 centuries according to jealously guarded recipes.
