Beschrijving

Kientzheim, a quiet gem on the Alsace Wine Route!

This charming winegrowing town, founded in the 8th century, is completely surrounded by medieval ramparts, a rarity in Alsace. Take a leisurely stroll around them.
The town has a rich heritage, with cobbled streets, elegant half-timbered houses, colorful murals, a sundial, old mills, a peaceful washhouse, fountains and even the beautiful covered well in Place Schwendi.

Kientzheim boasts a number of châteaux, including the former Château Schwendi, which is the headquarters of the Confrérie Saint Etienne, one of the oldest winegrowing brotherhoods in France. Within its walls is the small Alsace Vine and Wine Museum. From the gate at the eastern entrance to the village, a figure stares out at you, sticking his tongue out at you: the famous Lalli.

Surrounded by vineyards, this commune boasts the Schlossberg, Alsace's first terroir to be classified as a Grand Cru in the 1970s. Grape varieties include Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Muscat and Pinot Gris. Legend has it that the latter, also formerly known as Tokaj, was brought back from Hungary after a military campaign by Baron Lazar de Schwendi, a diplomat and general under Emperor Charles V, as well as the owner of Kientzheim.

The village can also be explored with the whole family, thanks to the "Wine City" walking tour. The route book is available from tourist office reception desks, and includes riddles for different age groups.

Kientzheim, an enchanting village not to be missed!
