Guided tours offered all year long upon request at the Office of Tourism – a mini train ride crossing into Germany from April to October: a fun and original exploration of the “vieille ville” (the old part of town) and its surroundings, tour offered in French, German, English and Dutch, lasting anywhere from 40 minutes to 1:15.
Located in the Northern Vosges Regional Natural Park and a gateway to France, Wissembourg was formerly a small market town for artisans and winegrowers.
Thanks to the abbey-church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul (XIII and XIV century) and its chapel dating back to 1033, this alluring town with remarkable architectural heritage is among one of the stops along the Roman Route. The must-sees are: the abbey-church that houses the biggest fresco painting in France (fresco of Saint-Christophe, 11 metres high, dating from the XIV century), the town hall, the Saint-Jean Temple, the “Maison du Sel” (House of Salt), the Westercamp Museum, the “Maison de l’ami Fritz” (House of the friend, Fritz), and the Relais Culturel established in the old Dominicans church (end of the XIII century).
The Ramparts, with its parks and green spaces, have been restored as a walking trail allowing access to a lovely tour of the city.
