Set in the Haut-Rhin department, Colmar, the third-largest commune in Alsace, is a testament to styles and eras past, from its pre-eminent status during the reign of Charlemagne to its French and German influences seen in its architecture and culinary delights. The town exudes the richness of time-travel, with every corner unfolding a slice of history, from the Diet of 884 held by Emperor Charles the Fat to its transformation under Emperor Frederick II in 1226.

A trip to Colmar transports you into a Vermeer portrait, with its intoxicating old town and stunning landmarks. Indulge in a spiritual journey at the Unterlinden Museum, home to the stunning Isenheim Altarpiece, or saunter through 'Little Venice', a picturesque district with quaint canals and floral displays.

Marked as the "capital of Alsatian wine", wine enthusiasts can traipse through the renowned Alsatian Wine Route, and participate in the biggest annual commercial, the Foire aux vins d'Alsace. As an irresistible draw for tourists globally, Colmar thrives strongly on its tourist industry, underlined by its continuous governance by conservative parties since 1947 and home to several multinational companies, embodying quintessential affluent French charm.

When to visit Colmar

When to soak up the hues of this vibrant town? Summer sets the stage for a bustling arena, with sunny spells casting a magical aura over the city's radiance. However, if you prefer to dodge high-season prices and crowded locales, late spring and early autumn offer a salubrious period to explore the quieter but equally charming facets of Colmar.

Despite winter's cold embrace, this time offers a unique perspective on Colmar, with reduced prices, fog-drenched landscapes, and fewer tourists adding a mysterious allure to this city. Whereas, spring blooms with a gentle symphony of mild weather, lush panoramas, and tempting temperatures, though the surge on prices may prompt early bookings.

June uncorks an opportunity to visit popular draws like the Old Town, Musee D'unterlinden, and the Statue of Liberty, with extended opening hours—a perfect time to witness Colmar in all its splendour, day or night.
