オーゼンバッハ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

This picturesque wine village is built in concentric circles around a medieval castle. You can walk or cycle here between colorful half-timbered houses, flower boxes and wine cellars. Eguisheim was not only voted one of the “Most Beautiful Villages in France”, but also the favorite city of the French in 2013.

Welcome to Eguisheim, the village where the houses are so photogenic they’re probably taking selfies when you’re not looking. Everything here looks like it was designed by an interior designer with a flower addiction and a passion for pastels. The streets wind in circles, so if you’re thinking, “I’ve been here before,” you’re right – you’ve just landed on an architectural merry-go-round. Perfect for those who love half-timbered houses, wine, and getting lost in the most charming way possible.

Very nicely situated ruins, with a wide view down to the Rhine plain

The stork is the symbolic animal of Alsace. The people here believe that the stork was present at the crucifixion of Jesus. Of course, that's why they honor him so much. Adebar also breeds in other regions of France, such as along the Atlantic coast.

Many wineries are built in a typical way. Characteristically, the ground floor was built in stone to support the timber frame construction. The half-timbering was sober until the 16th century and the woodwork is protected by soot or red iron oxide. Pigments and colors on the facades are priceless, which is why clay or whitewash is used. In the 17th century, the windows become larger, wooden decorations embellish the facades and pastel colors are used by the very wealthy. In the 19th and 20th century, a building is completely provided with a layer of cement. But for several decades now, woodwork of a house has become visible again. With the arrival of paint and its wide color palette, the Alsace region takes on a cheerful note... Her new identity is colorful 🌈

From its 1272 meters high, the Petit Ballon is certainly one of the most beautiful viewpoints of the Vosges massif. Its vast expanse of high stubble and the absence of adjacent summits allow it to dominate the landscape at 360°, and in particular the plain of Alsace to the east with the Black Forest in the background. The ideal place to admire the sunset, especially since several farm inns are within walking distance to enjoy a delicious marcaire meal and/or spend the night. Less touristy than the large Vosges ridge facing it, the Petit Ballon provides an authentic mountain feeling, with its Tibetan flags, its statue of the Virgin and its Vosges breed cow farms.

The tour around the Petit Ballon is an unforgettable round, from here you have a beautiful wide view

A very nice town center with beautiful streets and many half-timbered houses. Unfortunately also a lot of tourism and shops with knick-knacks. But definitely recommended.
