Departure from Mittelwihr*
A wine-growing town crossed by the Wine Route, Mittelwihr was almost completely destroyed during the fighting in the Colmar pocket (December 1944 - January 1945);
Ribeauvillé
Ribeauvillé, a jewel among medieval villages on the Alsace Wine Route, boasts 3 castles:
- The Château du Girsberg (formerly known as Petit-Ribeaupierre) is located at an altitude of 528 m. This castle was built in the 13th century by the lords of Ribeaupierre.
- The Saint-Ulrich castle is named after the chapel dedicated to Saint Ulrich, Bishop of Augsburg, which is located in the castle (formerly named Grand-Ribeaupierre).
- The castle of Haut-Ribeaupierre is first mentioned in the middle of the 13th century. A few decades later, in 1288, another toponym designates the lords of the place: Rabaldi Petra alto.
Kaysersberg
Kaysersberg and its fortified port are a must-see in Alsace. The birthplace of Albert Schweitzer, Kaysersberg is unmissable.
Then set off on the cycle route through the Alsace vineyards.
Zellenberg
An unusual village perched on a 285-meter-high hill, in the middle of a vineyard, which gives it an original and picturesque shape.
A fortified castle was built there in the 12th century at the southern end of the hill, overlooking the village. This castle was destroyed during the Revolution. Of its old fortifications, Zellenberg retains two round defensive towers: the first located at the entrance to the village, topped with a stork's nest, adjoins the Baroque church of 1760; the second placed at the upper end of the village.
Riquewihr
At once a belfry, a watchtower and the upper gate of the city, the Dolder, 25m high, is the emblematic monument of Riquewihr. Erected in 1291, at the same time as the first fortification, this tower has retained its medieval appearance, with its austere exterior facade to deter invaders and the interior, decorated with corbelled half-timbering
