Hochfelden

Hochfelden takes its name from the German words *Hoch* (high) and *Felden* (fields), referring to the "high fields" overlooking the Zorn valley.

This town in Bas-Rhin, located 23.5 km northwest of Strasbourg, sits on a hill offering panoramic views of the region.

In Alsace, Hochfelden stands out for its rich heritage, marked by the Saint-Wendelin chapel, the Saint Peter and Saint Paul church, a Protestant church, and a synagogue. The Zorn Country Museum complements the cultural offerings there.

The town is also known for housing the Meteor brewery, the oldest still operating brewery in France. Set in a remarkable setting, it offers an entertaining and educational visit about the history and brewing of beer. For relaxation enthusiasts, Hochfelden has a modern aquatic center, a multipurpose hall, and boat rentals nearby on the banks of the Zorn.
