Nestled in the heart of the vineyard, its traditional houses, its canals, its flowers, its tasty gastronomy, its renowned fine wines and its charming accommodations make Colmar a summary of idyllic Alsace and the guardian of an art of living where conviviality and hospitality are the essential values of a quality welcome. Colmar offers you a striking shortcut of more than a thousand years of European history through a wealth of heritage and cultural preservation of the most remarkable. In each season, its rich and diversified tourist offer guarantees you a host of cultural, sports, nature, relaxation, gourmet activities... At the crossroads of major European highways, between Strasbourg, Freiburg and Basel, at the gateway to Germany and Switzerland, its exceptional location makes Colmar an ideal starting point for exploring the entire Upper Rhine region. A city to consume without moderation! For Georges Duhamel (who wrote it in 1931), Colmar was the “most beautiful city in the world“... It has also often been said that it was the most Alsatian of the cities in Alsace! Without going into the escalation of superlatives, Colmar undoubtedly remains a quite exceptional city for the richness and variety of its historical and architectural heritage. 3rd city of Alsace by its population, it is located near Germany and Switzerland, between the Vosges and the Rhine, Strasbourg and Mulhouse. The city offers visitors a striking shortcut to more than a thousand years of European history. In addition, Colmar retains, with its 67,000 inhabitants, an endearing aspect of a “country town“ which gives it all its charm. Colmar, city of art, history and heritage Despite the vagaries of a turbulent history, the city has managed to preserve an exceptional homogeneity of its historic center which, classified as a “protected sector“, has benefited from restoration and permanent enhancement. The vast pedestrian area of the old town allows visitors to admire the innumerable riches of a heritage as rich as it is varied, ranging from the Middle Ages to the 20th century. Whether it is the Maison des Têtes (built at the beginning of the 17th century) which owes its name to the 111 heads that adorn its facade, or the Maison Pfister, a beautiful bourgeois residence from the Renaissance period but of medieval design, each of its monuments is unique in his genre. The religious art of Colmar is also very rich: the Dominican Church which houses the famous “Virgin of the Rose Bush“ by the Alsatian painter and engraver Martin Schongauer, as well as the Saint Martin Collegiate Church are wonderful examples of pure and sober gothic art, of great sobriety. Strolling through the streets, the visitor, amazed, discovers the many beautiful shops, the shimmering colored roofs... Strolling along the quai de la Poissonnerie, once the nerve center of fishing and the sale of fish, we falls in love with this picturesque district, now called “Little Venice“. #colmar #france #alsace #travel
