Description:
Discover the Parc de Wesserling, a former Royal Manufacture and today's multi-faceted site where heritage, tourism, economy and local life are one.
For a day or a weekend, start your walk in one of the five sumptuous gardens, classified as "Remarkable Garden".
The life of these gardens is punctuated by the seasons: egg hunt in spring (Easter madness), imaginary and fantastic gardens in summer (Festival of mixed gardens), vegetable garden festival in autumn, where flavors of the astonishing vegetable garden of Wesserling and gardeners' secrets are shared, and a magical Christmas show through the gardens at nightfall, very often under the snow (Christmas in the garden), and many more...
Each year, a new theme is explored by artists and gardeners: Gulliver, Jules Verne, Alice in Wonderland, etc.
A place of artistic and contemporary expression, the Parc de Wesserling connects us with the textile history of all of Alsace.
After all these changes of scenery, continue by understanding history and relive the industrial wealth of textiles at the Ecomuseum. Continue your discovery through a heritage trail in the middle of buildings from the textile era. Finish your walk by the "Grande Chaufferie" and observe the old coal boilers while strolling on the aerial footbridges.
