    Absolutely worth seeing in Colmar is the Unterlinden Museum (French: Musée Unterlinden), a collection of international renown, in particular through its most important exhibit, the world-famous Isenheim altar by Matthias Grünewald (created at the beginning of the 16th century). The collection of paintings and sculptures from the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance is also considered outstanding. a. with works by Martin Schongauer, whose master Caspar Isenmann, Cranach the Elder and Holbein the Elder.
    The museum uses the buildings of the former Dominican nunnery Unter den Linden, which was built in the first half of the 13th century.

      If you spend your holidays in beautiful Alsace and want to explore the area for a while, then you should not miss a visit to the pretty town of Colmar. Too tempting are the flowered old half-timbered houses, which are miraculously largely spared from the major destructions during the war. But there is so much more that attracts visitors here again and again, astonishes them and ensures an all-round feel-good factor.
      The old town of Colmar is considered to be one of the most beautiful old towns in France due to its location along the Lauch river, but also because of its beautiful and well-preserved half-timbered houses. If you stroll through the narrow streets, along the small cozy cafes and restaurants that invite you to linger and feast, you will soon be very warm about the heart.

        The Koifhus (Ancienne Douane - Old Customs Office) had a strategic position due to the confluence of the Grand'Rue and the Rue des Marchands, two of the main thoroughfares within the medieval city.
        Planned since 1433, the building was completed in 1480. Two of the adjacent houses were added during the 16th century.
