Historic cellar of the Hospices de Strasbourg, in existence since 1395, with the world's oldest wine in barrels
The historic cellar of the Hospices de Strasbourg dates back to 1395, and was used as early as the Middle Ages to store wine, grain and other perishable goods. 600 years later, it has retained its original function. The sumptuous vaulted cellar exalts the structure and aromas of wines stored in some fifty restored oak barrels and three historic foudres dating from 1472, 1519 and 1525. The oldest contains the oldest wine in barrels in the world!

Compared to other places in Strasbourg, this place is really suitable for English speakers who don't onow french. Entry is for free and you can take a tour of the wine celler where there are posters explaining interesting facts about the items in the building or the building itself (in English, French and German). For the price of 3 euros you can also recieve a speaker with an audio guide which explains the facts more thoroughly. They have the oldest wine in the world. It is a really beautiful place and the wines there are at a very reasonable price at their quality. The staff were also really nice.
I really recommend a visit to this place.
