What a beautiful Alsatian village! Literally on the German/French border about 70 minutes drive…read morefrom Kaiserslautern, where we live. I don't know why but Wissembourg is not mentioned in any French travel guide books. Perhaps that is a good thing to keep hordes of tourists away. Wissembourg is a beautiful village worthy of a day trip. Patisseries and restaurants are great. There is a Saturday morning market (small) with a guy who sells soaps from Marsaille for cheap prices compared to store prices. Wissembourg has many sights and is a great village to walk through taking picture after picture. They also have a small Christmas market in December that we really enjoyed! Be sure to pick up some desserts from one of the many great patisseries here. We do that each visit!
