Attraction Introduction

Colmar is often referred to as a “fairytale town,” renowned for its colorful timber-framed houses and picturesque canal scenery. It is one of the most charming destinations in the Alsace region, feeling as though you have stepped into a storybook world, and is also said to have inspired the setting of Howl’s Moving Castle.

How to Get There

  • About 30 minutes by train from Strasbourg
  • About 45 minutes by train from Basel
  • Walking is recommended for exploring the city

Travel Tips

  • The town's roads are narrow and can get crowded when there are many tourists.
  • It's very popular during the Christmas market in winter, so it's recommended to plan ahead.
  • Restaurant reservations are required in advance (during peak season).
