The Alsace and Georges Ratkoff 2027 calendars have arrived

The Alsace 2027 calendars are here, two ways to experience the region throughout the year

Whether you are a lover of watercolours and Alsatian traditions or a fan of photography and sweeping landscapes, there is an Alsace 2027 calendar made just for you.

Once again this year, two beautiful objects stand out as the perfect way to decorate your walls and mark your days from January to December 2027.

  • The first is the ephemeris calendar Alsace by Georges Ratkoff, a large format of 22 cm x 49 cm entirely illustrated with original watercolours depicting Alsatian traditions, villages and daily life across 12 months. Available HERE
  • The second is the large-format photographic Alsace Calendar 2027, covering 16 months from September 2026 to December 2027 and featuring a breathtaking selection of panoramic photographs of the region's most iconic sites. Available HERE

Georges Ratkoff is an artist who chose Alsace as his adopted home and has devoted a large part of his work to it.

Spending part of the year in the Munster Valley, he tirelessly roams villages and countryside to capture the moments of life that make this region so rich and unique.

Children in traditional costume, geese in farmyards, flower-lined streets with half-timbered houses, village festivals and age-old gestures, nothing escapes his warm gaze and inspired brush.

His watercolours exude a warm and timeless atmosphere, and each illustration tells a story, a suspended moment between tradition and poetry.

The photographic Alsace 2027 calendar, for its part, invites you on a true visual journey through the region.

Strasbourg Cathedral rises from above in all its Gothic majesty, a medieval castle stands on its rocky promontory in the heart of a golden-toned forest, and the villages of the Wine Route such as Riquewihr, Obernai and Kaysersberg compose scenes of rare beauty.

With its 16 months beginning as early as September 2026, this calendar is ready to use immediately and accompanies its owner well before the new year begins.

Two objects, two worlds, but a shared passion for Alsace and its exceptional heritage.

Whether as a treat for yourself or a gift for someone special, these two calendars make ideal presents for the festive season, a birthday or simply to share the love of this remarkable region with those closest to you.
