It is in the department of Bas-Rhin, in the Grand Est region, that the small town of Oberbronn is located. Located in the heart of Alsace, in the Vosges du Nord Regional Nature Park, Oberbronn is the ideal place to stay to discover the wonders of this region rich in colour and flavour, 50 kilometres north of Strasbourg.
Close your eyes and imagine: white or pink houses decorated with half-timbering from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, houses with orange tiled roofs, ornate windows and wide cobbled streets... This is what awaits you when you arrive in Oberbronn. A charming old medieval town, Oberbronn has preserved over the years all the magnificence of its heritage, like its houses first of all, but also its beautiful covered streets, decorated with houses each more colourful than the other. If you don't want to miss anything of its heritage, go through the Place de la Mairie, the Rue du Chaudron, the Rue Gelders, the Rue du Tribunal and des Fontaines, the Rue de Zinswiller, the Place Alteiningen and the passage of the Place de la Mairie. What to see? The former castle of Oberbronn, which since 1849 has housed the Convent of the Sisters of the Most Holy Savior: magnificent for its decorations, it is also worth a visit for its main courtyard and its superb gardens particularly conducive to strolling. The temple, the Notre-Dame chapel, the mixed church of Oberbronn, but also the tangled streets of the town centre and the stork enclosure are to be added to the list of your visits. A town of traditions, Oberbronn is studded with numerous restaurants where you can discover or rediscover all the delights of the local gastronomy. A speciality to be tasted absolutely? The chestnut sausage! But also sauerkraut, baeckeoffe, flammekueche, spätzle, kougelhopf, pretzels and gingerbread... So nothing very healthy on paper, but it's so good, and the holidays are a good opportunity to treat yourself!
Don't worry, all this generous food, you'll have plenty of time to get rid of it during your stay in Oberbronn. Because what makes you want to come back to this beautiful corner of Alsace is the splendour of its surroundings. There are numerous marked trails that will allow you to hike through the town and its surroundings, allowing you to discover some of the most beautiful sites in the Vosges du Nord Regional Nature Park. From the medieval ruins of the castle of Wasembourg to the shady routes of the forest of Falkenstein, without forgetting the pond of Baerenthal, the pond of Falken, that of Hanau, the summit of Wasenkoepfel and the Col de l'Ungerthal, Sunday sports enthusiasts and thrill-seekers will be able to enjoy themselves to their hearts' content, while those taking the waters and other fans of elegant holidays will revel in the numerous facilities (casino, thermal baths...) in the nearby spa town of Niederbronn-les-Bains.
