Ottmarsheim is at the end of the Rhone and Rhine Canal, 16 kilometres east of Mulhouse in the Haut-Rhin department of the Alsace region.

The main reason that people visit the town is to visit the impressive church. Dating originally from the 10th century, numerous modifications and renovations mean that much of what we now see dates from later centuries.

The church originally formed part of an abbey, and is unusual in being octagonal in design. It is a copy of the church of Aix-la-Chapelle (found in Germany), and is thought to be the oldest church in Alsace. It is also one of the oldest buildings to be found in the whole region.

There are also a series of impressive murals in the church at Ottmarsheim, dating from the 14th and 15th centuries.

(I have seen other sources that suggest the Palatine Chapel in Aachen or the Saint-Vital church in Ravenne, Italy are the inspiration for the design of the abbey church at Ottmarsheim. Unfortunately I don't know the correct answer...perhaps no-one does?)
