Chapelle Saint-Léon IX is a building constructed on the remains of a medieval fortified castle from the 13th century. It is located in the heart of the village of Eguisheim in the Haut-Rhin department ( Grand Est region ). Of the original fortress, there remains little more than the surrounding wall following an octagonal plan which is classified as a historic monument. It's tiny and low profile, while you can totally feel the legacy as soon as you walk in.

A beautiful, authentic church,

Beautiful chapel of the Alsatian pope Leo, colorful murals

Nice Chapel.

Beautiful church

(Translated by Google) The chapel, built in the 11th century in honor of Pope Leo IX, is located on Place Saint-Leon in the center of Eguisheim. It stands out as a jewel in the town center, adding beauty to the square where it stands. (Original) A capela, construída no século XI em homenagem ao Papa IX Leão, está localizada na praça Saint-Leon, no centro de Eguisheim. Ela se destaca como uma joia no centro da cidade, acrescentando beleza à praça onde está localizada.

(Translated by Google) A true gem nestled in the heart of Éguisheim! The Saint-Léon IX Chapel exudes a peaceful and timeless atmosphere, enhanced by warm colors. The place, both spiritual and artistic, invites contemplation. Its stained-glass windows, paintings, and neo-Romanesque architecture are magnified by the evening light. A poetic and soulful stopover. (Original) Un véritable bijou niché au cœur d’Éguisheim ! La chapelle Saint-Léon IX dégage une atmosphère paisible et intemporelle, sublimée par les couleurs chaudes. L’endroit, à la fois spirituel et artistique, invite à la contemplation. Ses vitraux, ses peintures et son architecture néo-romane sont magnifiés par la lumière du soir. Une halte poétique et pleine d’âme.

Nothing special, they try to make Christmas markt which is open for everyone bit they do not want to speak English ( there are always exceptions off course) ?!? Working time until 14:30 with a break untill 18:00 during Christmas markt??? Waiters in the restaurant are not polite, if the place is full they are closing the door at front of your face, without explaining or to offer you to come later, nothing, you get an angry face , no smile, no English... disaster , I will never come back and I will never recommend this place to anyone!!

Nice place to visit. Follow the touristic circle.

Very beautiful village, specially in Christmas time. Its Christmas market, isn't very big but it is very lovely. Can find where to eat, where to drink, mulled wine of course, and when to buy Christmas presents. Even the rest of the village deserve to take a walk through its streets, but walking slowly, watching ancient walls, looking the shops we find, definitely a very beautiful place to go.

Lovely small village. The christmas market is quite and good for taking photos whereas it offers less options than other villages xlose by. Nice atmosphere

This village is well worth a visit anytime of the year. Just incredibly beautiful, old houses and a very unique historic town. Alsace

Lovely village

We climbed from the hotel and it was around 35 min up and 20 min back. Very nice view!

Easy and short walk from the parking up to the 3 castles. Visited them on a Friday in July. Not too crowded with other visitors. We combined the visit, with visiting Eguisheim. Highly recommend both.

Worth visiting but if you are going during summer try avoiding going during afternoon because of the high temperatures and crowds. It is a great combination of short hiking and history.

Very cool castles that were easy to drive/walk to. I love that they are just available to discover on your own!

Very pretty, cool place to watch the sunset! Easily accessible, 5 minutes from carpark. The ruins are still relatively in tact.

Beautiful ruins that are easily accessible through a short hike. Definitely worth the detour!

Cool viewpoint vista for overlooking the area around Eguisheim to Colmar. Very steep hill and many curves on the way. Make sure to go with a good bike, E-Bike, hiking equipment or by car. 3 km took us 30 min with E-Bike. But the view is worth it. The 3 old towers of the castle are broken down, but you can go around, look around, take pictures and enjoy the view. Parking spot at 5 min walking reach. No entry fee.

Big roomy place with Soft music. Entrance through the large double doors.

Very impressive and massive church.

Nice church in the heart of the town.

Great choir from Hungary.

Catholic church with modern design.

(Translated by Google) A place of peace. When I was inside, very few others wandered in. The entrance door is closed during opening hours, but not locked. Inside, discreet church music played the entire time, lending the church even more dignity. (Original) Ein Ort der Ruhe. Als ich drin war, haben sich nur sehr wenige andere hinein 'verlaufen'. Die Eingangstür ist zu den Öffnungszeiten geschlossen aber nicht abgeschlossen. Innen lief die ganze Zeit dezente Kirchenmusik und gab damit der Kirche noch mehr Würde.

(Translated by Google) Of the Romanesque church, remodeled in the Gothic style in 1220, only the bell tower with its gabled roof remains. Composed of four stories, it features Romanesque elements in its lower section, while the upper section is adorned with twin ogival windows. The nave of the original church was demolished in 1807 and replaced by the current vast nave, built in the "barn" style in 1808 and 1809. (Original) De l'église romane, remaniée en style gothique en 1220, ne subsiste plus que le clocher avec son toit à bâtière. Composé de 4 étages, il comporte des éléments romans dans sa partie basse alors que la partie haute est ajourée par des fenêtres ogivales géminées. La nef de l'église primitive fut démolie en 1807 et remplacée par la vaste nef actuelle construite dans le style "grange" en 1808 et 1809.

It’s a must try restaurant in Eguisheim. The food is absolutely amazing. It puts a big smile on your face. Such a great pleasure to have the experience here. With the food , service and ambiance . Come and try !

Perfect foodie experience - seasonal and regional ingredients, impeccable cooking, and gorgeous presentation! My only regret is that we couldn’t eat more during our meal here.

A pleasant surprise. We found this restaurant on the way back from our hike, hungry and dehydrated. The restaurant has nice and relaxing ambiance. Seatings are available inside or outside terrace. Set menu for lunch is well priced and definitely worth it for the quality and taste. They are also wine producer. Service is excellent. I would highly recommend!

We organized a corporate dinner at this lovely restaurant, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome—everyone was so kind, attentive, and genuinely committed to making the evening special. A special shoutout to Betty, who went above and beyond to accommodate every single guest. Her attention to detail, flexibility, and warm hospitality truly made the night seamless and enjoyable. 👏 The ambiance was perfect for a professional gathering, and the food… absolutely delicious. Our team left not only full but genuinely impressed. Thank you for helping us create such a memorable evening—we’ll definitely be back!

We visited this so very cute Village and this restaurant is so pleasant great atmosphere food exquisite . Best escargot ever . Betty the owner is charming. A big thank you from Marinete & Richard . 💖

Fantastic restaurant with a nice ambience. The food is of high quality and the compositions fit nice together. Although they had two minor mishaps, the staff handled it with the utmost professionalism and was at all times friendly. If we are again in the region, we will come by for a nice, long dinner for sure.

I unexpectedly came across this restaurant and was pleased I stopped. The people sitting outside gave an idea of this restaurants popularity when everywhere else was quiet. The staff were very pleasing and happy and were able to talk to me in English. The attention to detail and skills of the staff are exceptional. The food is fabulous with unique turns on classic dishes. The presentation and flavours were amazing and the choice of wines, presented on electronic tablet, were extensive. Their proposition for wine matching was excellent and great value. Sitting outside I enjoyed a lovely quiet courtyard but the inside restaurant and facilities were as beautiful and well kept. A great combination of modern and old. I can't recommend this place enough it was a joy to have had the opportunity in life to experience this haven.

This was a nice little restaurant in town. We had the salmon and the spare ribs. The salmon dish was good, and the fish was nicely seasoned. The noddles were a little too soft, and the zucchini was salted a little too much. The pork ribs were great, nice, and tender with a well-balanced, sweet, and savory taste. All together, a good place to grab some lunch.

I usually don’t expect so much from restaurant with short menus, but I really really liked the food from here. Absolutely splendid. I did not have a starter/appetiser as I did not fancy anything from it. But I had a taste from what my parents had and what it was, tasted really good! There was a burrata with tomatoes, and also some beef dish, sadly I can’t remember. My main dish was going to be a beef tagliata. It was phenomenal and honestly I don’t know why I didn’t expect it to be good but it was fantastic. For desert I had a Black Forest sort of thing. Delicious. I must say as well this is one of the few restaurants I can leave good marks on music choice! And the staff were lovely, they are accommodating and easy to understand. The restaurant has a great atmosphere inside, really comfy seating. My parents left good reviews of the wine so that is a must.

Melon and Prosciutto starter was plentiful and very tasty, I had the ribs which were excellent, my wife the salmon, also excellent. We shared the crème brûlée ice cream which was a first (the ice cream, not sharing!) and was very good. Service spot on, not overly expensive, very much recommended.

Great restaurant!!!! Service was excellent!!!! Food was fresh and delicious 😋🤤!!!!

Excelent food, presentation, and service. Small menu. The escargot and house foie gras appetizers were to die for. I would have preferred the duck a little rarer but absolutely delicious. Would choose this restaurant again.

The food was ok, big portions.

We are a group of 14 people, the restaurant was empty, nobody except the staff was there. They said they wouldn’t let 14 people in, even if we would have eaten here, there would have still been space for others. They were also really rude to us, so if you are a tourist and don’t know french i wouldnt recommend this place.

Wow! Amazing staff - professional and friendly. Room was very clean and the cost was very reasonable. Easy pay parking, not expensive. Great location for touring Eguisheim. This was my third trip to the area and will definitely stay here next time as well.

Stayed here twice now and I'll definitely be back. Staff are excellent with great English (& German). Rooms are not huge but by no means cramped. Beds are good, pillows are nice. Clean throughout. Traffic isn't a problem on a night but in the morning, sort of 7am onwards there can be deliveries in the street which is cobbled. This isn't the hotel's fault, but it didn't bother us as we were up at a reasonable time anyway. Amelie deserves a mention as she was very friendly and chatty while remaining professional. Thank you!! Breakfast is good and worth it (no bacon but there's eggs you can boil yourself and the continental breakfast items are all top notch). You can't dine here at the moment (such a shame as the restaurant is lovely) so bear that in mind and there's plenty of places in the town (Café Heuhaus is my recommendation). Parking is off-street and good. If you look at pictures you'll see an archway - you drive in there and there are several spaces. Best to pre-book that and it's 7 euros per night at the time of writing.

Room was very clean but not free from environmental noise. We literally heard a snoring man in our neighboorhood. Small bed and little bit too hard for us. The village thought is very nice and has a relaxing atmosphere. The breakfast was also very good, but not included in the already high price of the room.

Great place for a short stay. Rooms are small but nice, staff is ok. They have parking in the back that you can reserve on beforehand.

Great location of the hotel - walking distance from the beautiful historic town centre of Equisheim and wine cellar stores. Decent and clean accommodation suitable more for a short stay visiting Alsace region. Outstanding customer service and good communication since the moment of reservation. There is a parking available inside the hotel yard for a symbolic fee. Hotel has a spacious restaurant and terrace - the best Cremant d'Alsace and Riesling I have ever tasted! The breakfast (booked extra) is very nice and in a quiet ambience. Please note that the hotel does not have lifts. There are plenty of restaurants in town walking distance from the hotel, but it is better to reserve your table well in advance (very touristy place) - hotel can help you with that.

At Logis Auberge Alsacienne the food is wonderful. The meat was great. Side dishes baked potatoe also very taste. The Service was perfect and recommended us the perfect fitting wine for our choice of diner. The desert also was awesome. All in all a perfect evening

Staffs are kind. Hotel is pretty in antique building. Has own parking place on ground floor. Excellent location. No air conditioning. No elevator. Tough for hot summer weather and people with limited mobility.

We walked in and got a table for two straight away. We opted for the of the day, emulsion of foie gras and a steak. Both dishes were tasty. The service was good.

What a wonderful recommended restaurant. We had the 5 course meal with 4 wine tastings (plus a starter Crèmant). Everything was delicious but the duck was fantastic! Thank you for the wonderful experience and allowing us to showcase what French cuisine is all about.

Great surprise in Egisheim! We had a very delicious dinner in a pleasant settings. Delicate dishes, full of flavors and perfect plating. Fine local wines. Each of the courses brought us true joy.

Food and the surroundings were excellent. Highly recommended.

Amazing place, and fantastic deal for the quality! Highly recommend the menu degustation!

The food was excellent. The decor beautiful.

Delicious. Big portion. Good service.

In general dinner here passed pretty nice, waiter was friendly and welcoming, but we were expecting a little better food. Tarte flambée with munster cheese and harengs a l’alsacien - tasty. Poulet au riesling - not the best (at least because the chicken leg had feathers, which didn't look very appetizing..)

My daughter and I stayed at this inn during our visit to Alsace. The room was spacious and up to date. An added plus is that the room has AC, even through we did not use it. The restaurant is great with typical Alsatian food. Breakfast was good as well. Only downside is that the inn does not have a lift, so one must deal with stairs to the upper floors where the rooms are located. As an added plus, Eguisheim is a very nice village. Very close to Colmar by car. Parking is convenient. The town is also quiet at night.

Stopped to have a lunch and what a great discovery and find. Cuisine Alsacienne at its best with a great selection of wine and an excellent service.

We went to this restaurant, because all the others in the village were full. The result, disappointed! The entrecôte, nothing to do with it, more like a steak and overcooked, despite their request for our cooking preference.

Excellent food , simple but super tasty. The flammkuchen are prepared in front of you and arrive to your table fresh and hot from the oven. The service is really good , our waiter was friendly , smiley and helpful. Book a table ahead of time as the place gets really busy for lunch.

Charming hotel in a beautiful village. Room was practical and very clean. Breakfasts, included, was excellent, pastries, yoghurts, charcuterie. The restaurant serves excellent meals, and the aromas on a summer's night were amazing! I was very happy to dine there each night of my stay.

Well run and friendly. The local 'tart flambe' was closer to pizza than we had expected/wanted (our mistake), though probably a good version of them. Dessert and coffee good. Not over crowded, but was a Tuesday in October!
