A Gothic work built on the remains of a 9th century basilica, with a remarkable silhouette in Colmar

Colmar's imposing Saint-Martin collegiate church is a Gothic masterpiece. Built on the remains of a 9th-century basilica, it was intended to have two towers, but only one was actually built. In 1572, a fire destroyed the roof frame and crown, and the tower was replaced in 1575 by the bulbous lantern that gives the building its remarkable silhouette. The ochre tones of Rouffach sandstone give it an unparalleled luminous intensity. The light playing on the sculptures of the Saint-Nicolas portal is truly sumptuous!

Belle collégiale qui fait l'office de plus grande église de la ville. Imposante d'extérieur, elle posède un beau portail et ses toits sont parfois couronnés par les nids de cigogne. Intérieur simple, robuste et un peu sombre.

The Collemar Saint Martin Collemar is located close to the Bartholdi Museum and the Pfister House. It is a large building comparable to a cathedral with a mosaic roof decorated in places.

Très belle collégiale dans le centre de Colmar. Des orgues à ne pas pas manquer. Mérite un détour.
