Explore the soul of Colmar through its rich architectural legacy with a 2-hour walking tour led by an expert local guide. Journey through the Fairy-Tale Old Town, where cobblestone streets and pastel-colored timbered homes create a real-life Alsatian postcard. Hear the stories behind medieval shop signs and structural quirks that have stayed unchanged for centuries.

Delve deeper at Maison Pfister, a striking Renaissance masterpiece known for its wrap-around murals, turrets, and the synthesis of medieval base with renaissance details—a key point in Alsace’s architectural evolution. Next, stop at the Maison des Têtes, a marvel of eccentric design. Its 106 sculpted heads adorn the façade in grotesque and humorous expression, inviting stories of the merchant class and civic pride in 17th-century Colmar.

Finally, visit the Koïfhus (Old Customs House), the town’s historical and economic core. From Gothic arches to Renaissance railings, this civic monument tells tales of Colmar’s former glory as a commercial hub on the Alsace wine and textile trade routes.

Ideal for photographers, architecture enthusiasts, and curious culture seekers, this tour offers more than historical facts—it unlocks Colmar’s visual language through the centuries.
