But going around with a guide makes all the difference.

Bei aller Geschichtsträchtigkeit fasziniert am Elsass vor allem die liebliche Anmut der Landschaft, sein besonderer Menschenschlag und eine spezielle Art der Kultur, wie sie wohl nur Grenzregionen hervorbringen können. Die einzigartige Topografie des "schönen Gartens" zwischen Vogesen und Rhein, wie schon der Sonnenkönig Ludwig XIV. das Elsass bezeichnete, weist zahllose Orte auf, die sämtliche Reize zu vereinen scheinen.
