MAGNIFICENT COURSE TO RECOMMEND

Taverne Katz (interesting building)

View from the garden to the 🏰

"The castle was built between 1780 and 1790 by the architect Nicolas Alexandre Salins de Montfort [...]. The commissioner was Cardinal Louis René Édouard de Rohan-Guéméné, who owned other residences, including the Palais Rohan in Strasbourg and the more modest Rohan Castle in Mutzig." (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rohan-Schloss)

The wooden flooring is a bit dated. It's a very complex construction.

For centuries, the residence of the Strasbourg bishops stood here. The previous building burned down in the 18th century, and when the French Revolution broke out, only the shell of this building was completed. Thus, it was never used for its original purpose. Since then, it has served various purposes: barracks, living space, town hall... Today, it houses a primary school, the youth hostel, the city museum, a large event hall, the "Espace Rohan," and four additional theater and event halls.

Beautiful old oak!

One of the most beautiful sections of the trip: the disused canal, rendered useless by the boat lift. Every few hundred meters, there's a lock with an idyllic lock-keeper's cottage along a gently sloping bike path.
