Morschwiller

Perched in the valleys of the Moder, between Brumath and Pfaffenhoffen, Morschwiller is an authentic Alsatian village where time seems to have stood still. Just twenty minutes from Strasbourg, this village of 597 inhabitants covers 462 hectares of bucolic landscapes. Its history dates back to 771, when it was already an imperial then royal village under the jurisdiction of Haguenau. Today, it preserves monuments rich in history, such as the Saint Ulrich chapel, built in 1832 by the Landgraben, and the Saint Étienne church, constructed in 1840 by Louis-Martin Zegowitz.

The village reaches its highest point at a place called "Les Acacias," where a hill offers a 360-degree panorama. From there, you can see Strasbourg Cathedral and Lichtenberg Castle, in a preserved setting ideal for walks. Hiking trails wind through the countryside, marked by calvaries of various styles, each carrying a local story.

Morschwiller also thrives with its many cultural and sports associations: basketball, badminton, horseback riding, theater, and choir enliven the community from its brand-new Cultural and Sports Center. The area remains marked by about ten farms specializing in dairy farming, cereals, or market gardening, while local shops, artisans, restaurants, and rural guesthouses complete the offer for visitors.
