Set in the foothills of the Vosges, Andlau is a pretty little village which offers a magnificent view by taking a little height. The contrast between the vines, the mountains and the houses is delightful.

Andlau was founded in 880 by Empress Richardis. She had been banished by her husband, Emperor Charles III, and was later canonized. Her tomb in Andlau became a place of pilgrimage. According to legend, a wild bear showed her the perfect spot (Wikipedia). Wonderful Crus are produced from the vineyards here.

Already in Roman times wine was cultivated on the southeast slopes near Andlau and Eichhoffen, later the vineyards belonged to the Benedictine abbey Altdorf near Molsheim. Today, the well-known Grand Cru location Moenchberg grows here. A stone monk figure marks the vantage point on the Véloroute du vignoble between Andlau and Eichhoffen.
