Grand Rue (High Street), Colmar

If it's your first time in Colmar, try a walking tour on the High Street (Grand Rue). The street leads past many captivating sights. For example, there will be the Customs House, the Church of St Mathew, Sandherr House, Kern House, the House of the St. John's Knights, the Roesselmann Fountain, and the Flower Market Square (Place du Marche aux Fleurs).

A little bit to the side of the street, one easily encounters the massive Collegiate Church of St Martin and the charming district of "Little Venice." It's ok to wander a bit. Getting "lost" in Old Colmar is not a bad idea. There are great shops, sights, and gourmet heaven.

The street is not very long, just over 1,600 feet. It begins in the Square of Six Black Mountains and ends in Joan of Arc Square. All along the way are restaurants, bars, cafes, beautiful medieval buildings, and shops.
