Built at the confluence of the Lauch and Thur rivers in Alsace south of Strasbourgh, Colmar dates back to around 823. It became an imperial town in the 1200s.

Some say Colmar is the most beautiful city in Europe, a point that's hard to argue.

At the end of this virtual tour, you'll find some Colmar visitor information.
