At this location you are standing in front of a medieval 'Tiendhof'. These courts or farms were owned by the nobility, but especially by powerful abbeys that owned a lot of land and vineyards. These courts were places for selling, buying, exchanging, measuring, appraising and managing the productions coming mainly from the vineyards, but also from the arable land and forests. The quality and reputation of Eguisheim wines are important for the development of these important trading areas. They unite within the walls of the city, where they are protected from robbers. For almost 1000 years, in the 17th century there were 20 of them, in a town like Eguisheim, they have testified to the city's most important charism throughout Alsace and beyond its borders.
Now everyone is welcome in the courtyard to enjoy and taste the delicious ripened grape juice.

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.

Eguisheim Castle

Highlight • Other

In Roman times, the square of the city most likely stood on a wooden building on an earthen mound: a motte. In the 8th century, a first Merovingian villa is said to belong to an important landowner named Egino. It may be the beginning of a city that took its name from its founder. In the year 1000, a small octagonal fortress is built around a courtyard. The moats disappear in the 16th century. The chapel within the fortress walls was built on the remains of the castle tower in the 19th century. On June 21, 1002, a famous person, Bruno from Eguisheim, was born in the castle.
The chapel is dedicated to him, because he became pope under the name of Leo IX (1049 - 1054)
