Nestling between the vineyards and the mountains, Ribeauvillé is a charming town which has preserved its historical heritage. In the 14th century, powerful lords decided to build the village walls and the castle.
Leaving from Place de la République, you can discover other strongholds which overlook the town: Saint-Ulrich (11th-15th c.), Girsberg (13th c.) and Haut-Ribeaupierre (13th-15th c.) make up a very pleasant 3-hour ramble.
