TOWN PRESENTATION

Picturesque town at the foot of Mont Sainte-Odile, 200 m at the mouth of the valley St. Ulrich and the foothills of Kirchberg and Altenberg, Barr owes its prosperity to its forests, vineyards and tourism. The surface of the ban is 2,100 ha including 1,589 ha of forests. Barr currently has 6000 inhabitants.

Barr is the wine capital of Bas-Rhin. Her vine climbs the hills bordering the valley of the Kirneck, indicated by the little white house perched high. It includes the famous Grand Cru Kirchberg.


SIGHTSEEING

Itineraries Discovery Barr: the old center has recently found its authentic style: pedestrian streets to find out more about half-timbered houses, stone carved porches, galleries in wood during ... These cobbled streets and lively plots, trails through the vineyards and forests, can enjoy the services of a city in the country.

Musée de la Folie Marco: a stately mansion in mid-mid-middle-class has become, thanks to a bequest made in 1960 in the town of Barr, a furniture museum Alsatian bourgeoisie of the seventeenth to the nineteenth century, from the Renaissance to the Empire and Restoration, supplemented by collections of pottery and porcelain, tin and local souvenirs.
