Haguenau

Haguenau occupies the valley of the Moder River in northern Alsace, within France’s Grand Est region. The town stands beside the Forêt de Haguenau, a broad lowland forest that gives its outskirts a distinctly wooded character and provides routes for walking and cycling. Its centre preserves the identity of a former imperial town: Haguenau joined the Alsatian Décapole, a league of ten imperial cities, in 1354. The 12th-century Romanesque nave of Saint-Georges church recalls its medieval development, while the Musée Historique is housed in the former Chancellery. Alsatian cooking and the regular market keep the centre closely tied to regional life. Browse other webcams across northern Alsace to place this setting in a wider geographic context.
