LITTLE VENICE / La Petite Venise, Colmar
"Little Venice" is the name of the course of the Lauch in Colmar. This name undoubtedly comes from the original orientation of the houses on both sides of the river, which flows towards the south-east of the city. This district begins behind the department store, runs along the fish bank and reaches the Turenne and Saint-Pierre bridges. It is therefore located at the beginning of Krutenau, whose etymology comes from the places of market gardening around the cities. Originally populated by a rural community of winegrowers, gardeners and boatmen, Krutenau extends around the Turenne street, which the Marshal passed through in 1674 during his triumphal entry into the city. Boat trips are possible in this area.

The district of Little Venice or Petite Venise is one of the most beautiful districts in the old center.
As the name suggests, there are many canals and rivers in Little Venice. The district starts just outside the Koifhus and runs until the Turenne and Saint-Pierre bridges. In the district there will be numerous beautifully colored half-timbered houses. In the summer months, the canals that run through the neighborhood are decorated with richly colored flower boxes. In the evenings, these channels are beautifully illuminated in various colors. The canals that run through Little Venice are ideal for a boat trip through Colmar. However, you can also take a nice walk through the neighborhood.
