Church Saint Louis

Church Saint Louis

On June 2, 1776, the foundation stone of a new church was laid on an artificial mound in the middle of the village (the singularity of this church!) and it was enlarged 85 years after its construction. The building escaped destruction during both world wars. As a sign of remembrance, a statue of St. Odile was erected next to the main portal. In the summer of 1958, a violent hailstorm shattered the stained glass windows and let in rainwater. In the 1960s, the interior of the church (choir, nave, altars, stained glass windows, ceiling and organ) was restored. In 1977 further renovation work uncovered the foundations of two previous buildings and the walls of the old cemetery once surrounding the place of worship.. Interior: The neo-classical church features a semi-recessed bell tower façade, a triangular pediment portal, a single nave with rectilinear side portals and a polygonal choir. The church features a tabernacle (18th century), altars and pulpit (19th century), high altar (20th century), a redesigned 25-register Stiehr organ (1817), a majestic painting of St. Louis by François Brendle (1807) at the back of the choir and two paintings on canvas over the side altars by painter Joseph-Louis Sorg, depicting two key scenes from the New Testament: the Crucifixion on the right and the Annunciation on the left (1840). In the church lie Klara Judith and her husband Hans Jacob von Landsberg, whose Rococo-style tombstone is still on the right wall of the nave. Outside: On one facade, a 1705 sundial is carved into a square slab. Originally placed against the "east" facade of the nave, the grotto of Lourdes found a worthy location behind the choir, attracting pilgrims for prayer and peaceful contemplation. On its side, the crucified Christ, with Mary and John at his feet, casts his gaze on the passer-by. The grotto is a place of prayer and peaceful contemplation. The church is not open to visitors, but is open throughout the year for religious celebrations.

With inventive menus based on fresh produce, the establishment immediately attracts trust and sympathy. As a starter, Thierry Baumert invites his customers to taste his pan-fried foie gras, one of the house's best-sellers.

This gourmet suggestion is best served with an Alsace wine, such as a Pinot Blanc Vieilles Vignes or a Muscat Cuvée Prestige. Another signature dish is veal kidney, whose flavors are enhanced by Cebo Iberian ham and Cebette. On the plate, the addition of chiffonaded Iberian ham and Cebette adds a visually appealing touch. For the main course, the chef suggests roasted farmhouse duck breast, accompanied by a pineapple condiment, pan-fried duck liver and sweet potato purée. The duck breast is cut in half lengthwise, as is the duck liver. Presentation is in layers. A sweet potato purée is poured onto the plate. A pineapple condiment and a pineapple leaf complete the decoration. A little crunchy texture is provided by a pineapple potato chip placed on top. The dessert, meanwhile, is served on a plate. The dessert, meanwhile, offers sparks in the mouth. In the spotlight: a kougelhopf glazed with Alsatian mare. This pastry of Alsatian origin is served with white, red and raisins marinated in mare d'Alsace. It is best enjoyed with a glass of Gewurztraminer Vieilles Vignes from the Ribeauvillé winery.
