This building, intended for the Oberlandesgericht of the higher court of the Reichsland, which was too cramped in the palace of the sovereign council, inaugurated in 1906. Construction started in May 1902 on the former site of the horticultural and viticultural society's experimental garden. The building was designed by architects Kuder and Müller and is in keeping with the German neo-Baroque style.

Colmar has been the regional judicial capital since the arrival of the sovereign council in 1698. The Oberlandesgericht, established with the annexation of Alsace by Germany, was issued in 1918 by the Supreme Court of Alsace-Loringen, which again became the Court of Appeal in 1923 . This court, the highest in Alsace, is still located in the building.

With the law of the 27th of Ventôse of the year VII (according to the revolutionary calendar in force at the time, March 18, 1800 of our era), an appeal court was set up in Colmar under the name “Tribunal d’appel”.

The name of the dish changed over time. With the law of May 18, 1804, the name became “Cour d’appel de Colmar”, in 1810 “Cour Impériale”, in the Second Empire “Cour royale” and in the times of the Republic it was again “Cour d’appel de Colmar”.

The court was responsible for the predominantly German-speaking départements of Bas-Rhin and Haut-Rhin (i.e. Alsace).

After the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/71, Alsace and Lorraine were annexed to the German Empire as the Reichsland Alsace-Lorraine. The Cour d'appel de Colmar was dissolved and the Colmar Higher Regional Court was founded as its successor. In contrast to the previous regulation, the new higher regional court was also responsible for Lorraine.

With the end of the First World War, France was able to regain Alsace-Lorraine and reestablished the old administrative structures, including the Cour d'appel de Colmar. With the interruption caused by the German occupation in the Second World War, the court still exists today.
