Altkirch
Altkirch is south of Mulhouse in the Haut-Rhin department of the Alsace region.
The town is in an attractive location on the site of an earlier castle, destroyed in the 17th century. The remains of the castle were used as landfill before the church was constructed.
It is now the old town in Altkirch that holds the interest, with an attractive variety of 16th century houses encircled by the remaining parts of the town ramparts. Note especially the house called 'a la pomme'.
There is also a museum that tells the action packed story of the town and the Sundgau region - Altkirch is the 'capital' of the Sundgau region, the name given to this part of Alsace between the Jura mountains and Switzerland. The museum is in an impressive building next to the town hall.
