Châtenois on the Wine Route, Châtenois on the Wine Route

Highlight • Other

Châtenois, ideally located on the Wine Route, is a fortified city with a unique charm. Two enclosures surround the town, dating from the 13th and 15th centuries. Ramparts staged each year during the traditional “Fête des Remparts” in June:

These places are listed as Historic Monuments thanks in particular to the Witches' Tower, a 15th century Gothic tower gate located on the second enclosure; and the 18th century St Georges Church. Push open the door of the latter where you will discover one of the masterpieces of the organ builder Silbermann.
From the church, walk on the interpretive trail along the ramparts then go down towards the heart of the town. Get lost in the streets and let yourself be seduced by the typical Alsatian houses where geraniums bloom on the balconies every summer.
You can also explore the surrounding cycle paths during the annual Slow Up in June: slowup-alsace.fr

End your walk with a visit to the cellars and stop at one of the town's good restaurants which offer different local specialties such as tarte flambée.

Aubach and Historic Washhouses in Place du Maréchal Foch

Highlight • River

The Aubach, a river with about a hundred wash houses, runs through the village. Stroll along its quays, cross the small stone bridges and stop to discover the remains of the old washhouses where the laundresses washed their clothes. In the summer, these laundry rooms come to life in the theater show on rue des Lavandières, where scenes of rural village life are acted out in French and Alsatian.

Scherwiller Village Center

Highlight • Settlement

The town has pretty half-timbered houses and Renaissance buildings. The district on the Aubach is very picturesque. The watchtower with bay window and the tithe farm date from 1670. In 1525 a massacre of revolting peasants took place here (German Peasants' War). Scherwiller is dominated by the ruins of Ortenberg and Ramstein castles.

Scherwiller, Capital of Riesling

Highlight • Settlement

The meanders of the Aubach, still punctuated by five wash houses, give Scherwiller incredible charm. The center of the village is full of beautiful winegrowers' houses, with their emblazoned pink sandstone porches and their half-timbered facades from the 15th and 18th centuries. Note the Guardhouse House, a superb building with an oriel window and sculpted balcony (17th century). A stone's throw away, at number 35 rue de la Mairie, admire the Tonnelier farm (18th century), its cart door, its half-timbered floor with corbelling and its ornate corner post.
On the heights of Scherwiller sleep the ruins of the Ramstein and Ortenburg castles

Carousel at Place de l'Étoile, Obernai

Highlight • Structure

The Place de l'Etoile (Star Square) takes its name from a former inn. The mill canal once flowed across the square, which was also used for calibrating barrels, hence the name "Sinnplatz" (meaning place). The number of mills powered by the Ehn or the canal varied over time. A flourishing viticulture industry and a diverse range of crafts promoted the town's development during the Renaissance. Obernai wine was sold primarily in northern Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and the Vosges Mountains.

Canal de la Bruche

Highlight • Other

The approximately 20 km long Canal de la Bruche begins north of Avolsheim, not far from the old episcopal town of Molsheim. It was built by Vauban in 1682 in order to be able to transport sandstone by ship for the construction of the fortress in Strasbourg. In 1782, up to 950 ships sailed on the canal, which was used until 1938.

Today a beautiful cycle path leads along the "Canal de la Bruche" from Strasbourg to the former train station in Soultz-les-Bains. The cycle path is asphalted throughout and winds along the course of the water past the eleven former locks with the mostly beautifully renovated lock houses.
