France - Alsace

Dolder Gate


A Karen Brown Recommendation

Riquewihr, Alsace, France
Recenter Map To This Location

Riquewihr, one of the most beautiful villages in Alsace, is completely enclosed by tall, protective walls and encircled by vineyards. It is easy to understand why this picturesque spot is a magnet for visitors. This picture-book village is a pedestrian area, its narrow streets lined with half-timbered houses. Signs beckon you into cobbled courtyards to sample the vintners’ produce, and cafés and restaurants spill onto the streets. The local museum is housed in the tall square stone-and-timber tower Dolder Gate and Tour des Voleurs (Thieves’ Tower), which exhibits grisly instruments of torture. (Open Jul and Aug, closed Oct to Easter, open weekends rest of year, tel: 03.89.49.08.40.)
