Located on Route des Vins d'Alsace, the city of Boersch is a nice little historic town. Its three doors towers, remains of walls, the iconic Renaissance wells, half-timbered houses testify to its rich past.
Its annexes and St. Leonard Klingenthal also of great interest. The first site of a former Benedictine abbey, was a hotbed of new art. The second was born in the time of Louis 15th who wanted to create a white arms factory whose history is explained in a museum dedicated to it.
