Small village of Bas-Rhin, in Alsace, Bassemberg takes place at the gates of Villé, at an altitude of 280 m. It is located at the foot of the Honel hillside, not far from Saint-Martin or Breitenau, about fifty kilometers from Strasbourg and its magnificent tourist sites.

Built in the Middle Ages on the old road leading from Villé to Saint-Dié, the commune of Bassemberg then mainly developed around its mill, its bridge and its forest. Strongly affected by the various wars that ravaged the region, such as the Rustauds' war or the Swedish war, it was able to rebuild itself to take on the pleasant face that we know today.

Things to see and do

Built around an old 16th century chapel, the Saint-Quirin church was rebuilt in the middle of the 18th century, then enlarged in the 19th century. Formerly a place of pilgrimage for patients suffering from rheumatism, it reveals a beautiful interior decoration with in particular a painting representing the baptism of Saint Quirin or stained glass windows representing Saint Anne, Saint Antoine, Saint Florent, the Immaculate Conception or even Saint Madeleine.

While strolling through the village, you can also discover the various Calvaries, the Pierres-Bornes which set the limits of the old forest of the Abbey of Honcourt, or a Second Empire bench erected in honor of Empress Eugénie de Montijo.

As you walk around, you will also be able to see beautiful houses that have adopted the layout of Vosges-type farms.
