Türckheim

On the edge of the Vosges Mountains, between vineyards and hills, lies the colourful town of Turckheim – a pearl of Alsace. Known for its well-preserved city gates, half-timbered houses and medieval atmosphere, the village breathes history. In the summer months, a night watchman in traditional costume still keeps watch here, a tradition unique in the region. Cycle through the cobbled streets, admire the Hôtel des Deux Clefs, the Romanesque tower of the Église Sainte-Anne and the lively facades that give the town its charm. Turckheim is not only a feast for the eyes, but also a place with a rich history – from its Roman roots to the Battle of Turckheim in 1675.

a beautiful village with small restaurants, cafes and not overcrowded with tourists, at least not at our time.

Absolutely stunning and charming historical village! The buildings are not only beautiful, but also so well preserved. There's also so many wonderful restaurants, bakeries, and cafes to enjoy - it's an absolutely fantastic place to stop for a break.
