Church with a roman bell tower, remarkable stained glass windows and a beautiful organ, one of the most important religious buildings in Alsace.

Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1930, this Gothic-style abbey was built between the late 13th and early 14th centuries. Among the abbey's furnishings are a chandelier, a copy of a famous11th-century piece, and a large 14th-century fresco depicting Saint Christopher. There is also a statue of the good King Dagobert, founder of the abbey, as well as fine sculptures and wall paintings dating from the 14th century.

Grande église en plein centre-ville. C'est la deuxième plus grande église d'Alsace de par sa surface après la cathédrale de Strasbourg. Style gothique, hormis la tour carrée qui est le seul héritage de la construction romane de l'église.
