Highlight • Settlement

The Lauter is divided into 2 channels in the city center, which flow together again on the outskirts of the city. Because of this, Wissembourg is sometimes called Little Venice.

The laterally positioned Romanesque bell tower dates back to the predecessor building from the 11th century.

The small town of Wissembourg owes its charm to many things, but the traditional half-timbered houses are particularly remarkable. Take the time to stroll around and appreciate the colorful streets that stand out beautifully amidst the vineyards.

Beautiful to look at. In some cases you can read the year they were made... there are some that are already 400 years old.

Unfortunately, Cafe Rebert was closed. Otherwise, every corner was decorated and the Christmas market was set up.

France is just behind the wine gate... 💡😀
I just wanted to test whether the French soil still supports me and whether I can endure it 😉
The result was.... 👍 Great, maybe because it was an unexpected city for me....
How many such spontaneous "unexpectabilities" fit into such a few days 🤔 Please just keep it up... 👍😄

With the bad weather forecast ☂️, our hike 🥾 turned into just a city trip.
By the way, Daniel Rebert's cakes 🍰 weren't served until we got back to the campsite 🏕 in the caravan.😋

In summery temperatures, we were drawn to the Centre Ville of Wissembourg, the northernmost town in Alsace. A nice, typically French little town with lots of half-timbered houses and floral decorations ...
