The first building was erected on this site in the seventh century AD. And the building that we see now was built in the 13th century, that is, the church is quite old with a great not only religious, but also historical tradition. We had a very hot day, but nevertheless it was cool and calm inside. Unusual is the placement of an additional musical organ on the side of the altar. You will find such an arrangement not in every church.
A beautiful and peaceful place with impressive architecture
I love the beautiful tower seen from every corner of the city. After Strasbourg, this is the biggest cathedral in Alsace. The entrance is free and church is worth seeing.
Gorgeous abbey in the heart of a perfect French town. The surrounding area is perfect for spending the day. Beautiful area.
Nice old church with a small exhibition in the church and in the chapel next to the church.
A serene gothic church at the entrance of the town.
Beautiful church well worth a visit.

One of the most beautiful and scenic town I have ever visited. You can really feel the blend of French and German cultures in the building styles (the town changed hands between France and Germany 4x before it was assigned permanently to Germany after WW2. a short train ride (about 1 hr) from Mannheim. Make sure you walk around the town to get the real country feel.
Waiting 2 hours to ride a train and we couldn't get a place. Because with kids hard to move fast. No line no rule just push the people and get on the train first.
Wissembourg is another nice village in Alsace, the old town area is beautiful and,clean, the place is worth visiting.
Nice town, but the staff at the tourist office was very rude. We were waiting for 15 minutes while she was just talking on the phone. She watched us waiting and could not pause her call for 1 minute to ask what we wanted. Also she did not apologize that we had to wait that long. We were here on 31 august.
Very helpful lady at the desk which gave me the map of city and answer on my question where to find the picturesque bridge over La Lauter with bell tower

Very nice place, in front of the house there is a little park where you can sit take the sun and enjoy the view.
Beautiful place to walk around 😍
One of my favorite spots in Wissembourg. Weather permitting you can sit on a bench in front of it listening to the splashing fountain in the park just to relax and unwind.
Interesting old medieval house.
Wonderful 👍💪

(Translated by Google) It's always a pleasure to stroll through the small Alsatian town. It doesn't matter whether you choose the path along the Lauter or prefer the city wall path. Both have a certain charm in their own way. Worth in Alsace, you should definitely visit Wissembourg and treat yourself to tarte flambée and small tarts. (Original) Es macht immer wieder Freude durch das kleine elsässische Städtchen zu bummeln. Es ist egal, ob man den Weg entlang der Lauter wählt oder eher den Stadtmauerweg bevorzugt. Beides hat auf seine Art und Weise einen gewissen Charme. Wert im Elsass ist, sollte Wissembourg unbedingt besuchen und sich dort mit Flammkuchen und kleinen Törtchen verwöhnen.
(Translated by Google) Living history, the city is well worth a visit. (Original) Lebendige Geschichte, die Stadt ist durchaus einen Besuch wert.
(Translated by Google) It's just great to walk along the city walls and the Lauter. The facilities are well preserved and always offer surprises the further you walk.

More than 1000 years old. A mystical place full of ancient energy. A hidden gem. Must go! Must see! Must experience!
(Translated by Google) Very beautiful, almost mystical-looking Romanesque church. It's worth a detour, even a short walk through the cemetery. Attention: In winter use the SIDE ENTRANCE on the right as the main portal is closed. Will not be written to! (Original) Sehr schöne, fast schon mystisch anmutende romanische Kirche. Lohnt einen Abstecher, auch ein kurzer Gang über den Friedhof. Achtung: Im Winter SEITENEINGANG rechts nutzen, da Hauptportal geschlossen. Wird nicht angeschrieben!

(Translated by Google) Beautiful Saint Ulrich church in the old town of Wissembourg. We were traveling in Wissembourg. The Church of Saint Ulrich Altenstadt, in combination with a city tour through the old town, is a beautiful sight and a good excursion destination in the region. We would be happy to come back and would be happy to recommend the destination. (Original) Schöne Kirche Saint Ulrich in der Altenstadt von Wissembourg. Wir waren in Wissembourg unterwegs.

The piano festival was superb! I come again
(Translated by Google) Very dynamic cultural center: diversity of cultural events between theater, cinema club and concerts. Shows in which the spectator can rub shoulders with amateur and professional actors who are always of quality. (Original) Centre culturel très dynamique : diversité des manifestations culturelles entre théâtre, club cinéma et concerts. Des spectacles dans lesquels le spectateur peut côtoyer des comédiens amateurs comme des proxessionnels qui sont toujours de qualité.
(Translated by Google) Very warm welcome. Pleasant room and top theater (Original) Accueil très chaleureux. Salle agréable et pièce de théatre au top

(Translated by Google) Beautiful concert hall where not only the well-known chamber music festival takes place every August, but also cinema and cabaret events. The music festival is great with its young, committed musicians. I particularly like that modern classical music is also played. If you have the opportunity, you should definitely attend one or more of the festival's concerts! (Original) Schönes Konzerthaus, in dem jeweils im August nicht nur das bekannte Kammermusik-Festival, sondern auch Kino- und Kabarett-Veranstaltungen stattfinden. Das Musikfestival ist mit seinen jungen, engagierten Musikern großartig. Mir gefällt besonders, dass auch moderne Klassik gespielt wird.

We enjoy the organ concerts every Saturday in July and August, for a donation that goes to the parrish's sponsored missionaries.
(Translated by Google) Definitely try to attend an organ concert! A very special experience on the fantastic Thomas organ from 2015. Entry is free, but you are welcome to donate. After enjoying the concert, it was very easy! The church itself is Protestant and simple, I like that. (Original) Unbedingt versuchen, ein Orgelkonzert zu besuchen! Ein Erlebnis der besonderen Art auf der fantastischen Thomas-Orgel von 2015. Der Eintritt ist kostenlos, aber man darf gerne spenden. Nach dem Konzertgenuss fiel das sehr leicht! Die Kirche selbst ist protestantisch-schlicht, ich mag das.
(Translated by Google) The Église Saint-Jean is a true gem! The church impresses with its beautiful Gothic architecture and impressive interior. The artistic stained glass windows and the quiet atmosphere in particular make the visit an unforgettable experience. An ideal place to relax and experience the history of the region. Highly recommended for anyone interested in culture and history! (Original) Die Église Saint-Jean ist ein wahres Juwel! Die Kirche besticht durch ihre wunderschöne gotische Architektur und das beeindruckende Interieur. Besonders die kunstvollen Glasfenster und die ruhige Atmosphäre machen den Besuch zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis. Ein idealer Ort, um sich zu entspannen und die Geschichte der Region zu erleben. Sehr empfehlenswert für alle, die an Kultur und Geschichte interessiert sind!
(Translated by Google) I was extremely fortunate that the organist was practicing for an upcoming concert at the time of my visit. This allowed me to experience some of the richness of the new organ's sound. St. John's Church is Wissembourg's historic parish church. Large information panels, including in German, provide information about its long history. Otherwise, the church is simple, in keeping with its Romanesque style, allowing you to quickly focus on the essentials. (Original) Ich hatte das große 🍀 Glück, daß der Organist zum Zeitpunkt meines Besuchs gerade für ein bevorstehendes 🎼 🎶 🎹 Konzert geübt hat.So konnte ich einen Teil der Klangfülle der neuen Orgel erheischen. Die Johanneskirche ist Wissembourgs historische Pfarrkirche. Über ihre lange Geschichte geben große Schautafeln Aufschluß, auch in deutscher Sprache. 👍 Ansonsten ist das Gotteshaus entsprechend dem romanischen Stil schlicht, sodaß man sich rasch auf das Wesentliche besinnen kann.
(Translated by Google) Interesting little church ⛪️ in the old town 😃👌 (Original) Interessante kleine Kirche ⛪️ in der Altstadt 😃👌
(Translated by Google) Nice little church in Wissembourg We were traveling in Wissembourg and came to the beautiful Protestant St. John's Church. Église Saint-Jean located past the old town.
