Urbeis

Built around the Giessen de Steige, Urbeis grew into a small Alsatian commune in the Val de Villé, among the eastern foothills of the Vosges. The village lies in a narrow, wooded valley close to the Col d’Urbeis, a pass connecting Alsace with the upper Bruche valley. Above the settlement, the ruins of Château du Bilstein recall the medieval network of strongholds that watched routes through these mountains. Urbeis belongs to historic Alsace, where French and Germanic influences have long met in language, food and architecture.
