I adore this market. It has such a wonderful selection. When we're in Germany (which is often)…read morewe're there every weekend. The fruits and veggies are picture perfect and so wonderfully fresh and tasty. And the selection of honey is stunning. I never knew there was so many! You can also eat along the way: fresh roasted chicken, wursts... pastries... It's a lovely market, with music, and also a very happy gathering of people. I love the whole atmosphere. We have markets here, one in our own neighborhood in fact, but it can't hold a candle to this one.

Very cute Tarte Flambee restaurant just outside of the old city across the water from Batorama…read more There are a couple tables outside and lots of space inside. Inside is a lightly lit modern cozy decor with cowhide wrapped overhead lighting, wood grain tables and chairs adorned with black metal throughout. Menus are posted in the tables and you can get a French, German or English version. The waitress was very prompt to get our drink order and faster than we were ready for our food order. We opted to share two savory tartes and save dessert for the Christmas market. I also ordered a vin chaud as I was a bit cold from the boat ride. The vin chaud was very balanced in sweetness, spice and tannins from the wine I highly recommend if you're cold. MUNSTER MIEL [VEGETARIAN] Sour cream, onions, with Munster cheese, honey and thyme : 13,00 € This was a great replacement for a sweet Flambee. The bite from the cheese with the sweetness from the honey made this a great Flambee to pair with something smoky. BOEUF SECHÉ D'ALSACE & COMTÉ Sour cream, onions, comté cheese , smoked beef bacon, garlic, arugula : 17,00 € The beef bacon was incredibly smoky and paired very well with the creamy comte cheese. Going back and forth between this and the Munster couldn't have been better planned. The food was fantastic, the service was fantastic, the atmosphere was comfortable and fun. What a great place to enjoy a meal. We're so glad we came and so LucKy to get in with a short wait Reservations accepted after 6pm service!

"Covered bridges" but not actually covered, the Ponts Couverts are three bridges and four towers…read morethat were built in the 13th century as a defense of the city. There was originally a wooden roof but it was removed back in 1784 and the name remained. The nearby marker in French, German and English reads, "The covered bridges comprised the city's wester defenses from the 13th to 17th centuries and formed part of the Episcopal wall. Three of the bruick-built towers have survived - the Heinrichsturn, the Hans von Altheiumturm and the tour des Français (French tower). The spur-shaped parts in front of the bridges were built by Daniel Specklin in the 16th century and fitted with loopholes for guns to fire through. The bridges' galleries were protected by a tilting roof, whence the name, and closed off by a wooden wall contained arrow slits. The galleries were replaced in 1784 by wooden footbridges and in 1865 by the sandstone bridges that can be seen today. From 1880 to 1950, the area in front of the second tower was taken by the Mathis Baths, which were divided into two pools, separated by covered pontoons surrounded by a fence and fitted with changing rooms."

Translates to "covered bridges" but the actual covered bridge is directly across called the Barrage…read moreVauban. Perhaps at one point these bridges were covered but definitely not anymore. It's a scenic area surrounded by water and large towers that once defended the city back in the 13th century. It would be neat to go up the towers and get a better vantage point of the Petite France quarter; however, the towers are off limits and inaccessible. It's worth coming here at night when the reflection of the water makes for a gorgeous photo.
