Bernardswiller
Perched at the foot of Mont Sainte-Odile, Bernardswiller is a charming Alsatian village of 1,465 inhabitants, part of the famous wine route.
Its origins date back to 1276, and its past is still evident in its narrow, peaceful streets lined with half-timbered houses and elegant courtyards.
These courtyards, often adorned with sculpted wells or carriage gates bearing the emblems of long-gone trades, tell a story deeply connected to the vine and stone, emblematic materials of the region.
Today, the vineyards cover 180 hectares, benefiting from generous sunshine and moderate rainfall that give the local wines a well-deserved reputation.
