A charming Alsatian village with approximately 4,700 inhabitants. The old town is well worth seeing with its colorful houses. Ribeauvillé is also very popular because of the hike to its three castle ruins that overlook the town.

Most of the towers and parts of the city wall have been preserved on the side facing the Strengbach stream (in the south of the city). The Butcher's Tower stands prominently in the city center, separating the Old Town from the central part of the city.

A few steps from the Dolder, towards the western exit, stands an outpost or barbican, the so-called "Upper Gate," dating from around 1300. The massive double-leaf gate and the wooden portcullis from 1536, undoubtedly the oldest in Europe, are particularly striking in the passageway. Given the widespread use of firearms, the inhabitants of Riquewihr felt towards the end of the 15th century that their original fortifications were no longer effective enough. The Duke of Württemberg, Lord of Riquewihr, who wanted to protect the town's inhabitants and the produce of their vineyards, had a second rampart built around 1500, constructed of Vosges sandstone.

The upper city gate, the Dolder (1291), was built at the same time as the first fortifications at the end of the 13th century and served as a defensive tower, watchtower, and bell tower. In Alsatian, "Dolder" means "highest point, peak." At 25 meters high, this tower threatened the enemy with the stark and warlike appearance of its exterior, while the inner facade, facing the city, had delighted the inhabitants since the 16th century with its attractive arrangement of wooden beams and four corbelled vaults. Its first level formed one of the starting points of the patrol path that ran along the top of the ramparts around the city.

In front of the church, dedicated to the Holy Cross, stands the Constantine. It is the work of the same sculptor as the altarpiece in the church, Hans Bongart. It dates from 1521 and is made of pink and yellow sandstone.
