Alsace - Audrey Robin

Alsace is a region with a unique identity. Located in the heart of Europe, it borders Germany and Switzerland in the north-east of France. The region boasts an exceptional historical and cultural heritage including numerous churches, craftsmen's houses and half-timbered houses, as well as Vauban fortifications and the largest concentration of castles in France, including the famous Haut-Koenigsbourg. The wine route winds its way through the Alsatian landscape, lined with small, picturesque villages. The historic centres among vineyards and forests inspire visitors with their picturesque architecture. In addition to its cultural wealth, it also offers places of scenic interest. Five nature reserves and the imposing Vosges massif, which extends to Lorraine and the Moselle department, open up thousands of kilometres of hiking trails, where all nature lovers will be delighted.
