The cityscape of Breisach is primarily defined by St. Stephen's Minster. Situated on Münsterberg hill, it is visible from afar. The views of Alsace and the Black Forest are best enjoyed from up there.

The historic town center of Breisach lies directly behind the minster. In the lower town is the renowned Geldermann sparkling wine cellar. As part of a guided tour with a sparkling wine tasting, you can descend into the cellars of this privately owned winery. Tours take place Monday through Saturday at 2 p.m. (no registration required). From March to October, tours are also offered on Sundays. The tour, including the tasting, lasts approximately one hour and costs five euros per person.

Altrhein - Beautiful area

Highlight • Cycleway

I've cycled this path several times in both directions, and I always enjoy it very much. It's shady in places, has a fine gravel surface, and is easy to ride. It's quite secluded along the Rhine dike; for more civilization, you have to take the side paths to the small villages in the southern Baden Rhine plain.
