Sélestat is one of the most overlooked and most captivating cities in Alsace. Sandwiched between Colmar and Strasbourg on the Wine Route, it is all too often driven through without stopping. This is a mistake: this medieval city is home to one of the most precious libraries in Europe, two remarkable churches and an authentic historic centre untouched by mass tourism. This guide invites you to discover it differently.
La Petite France is Strasbourg's most iconic neighbourhood. Its half-timbered houses leaning over the canals of the Ill, its cobbled lanes and its locks make it one of the best-preserved medieval ensembles in Europe. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1988, this former quarter of tanners, millers and fishermen attracts millions of visitors from around the world every year. This guide takes you on a journey through its history, its monuments and its best-kept secrets.
Colmar is one of the most visited cities in France and the undisputed jewel of tourist Alsace. Its cobbled streets, colourful half-timbered houses and the famous Little Venice district make it a living postcard, spared by the destruction of the Second World War. The unofficial capital of Alsatian wines and the natural starting point of the Wine Route, Colmar deserves far more than a brief stopover - this complete guide helps you plan your visit and bring home the best of it.
The Alsatian gift box is one of the most popular solutions for giving an authentic, representative gift from the region, without needing to multiply individual searches.
