Ville de Thann

At the entrance to the beautiful Thur Valley situated at the foot of

Ville de Thann
the Vosges mountains, the town of Thann welcomes you in a charming urban setting and entices you to take a leisurely stroll. The « old town » is centred around the Collegiate Church Saint-Thiébaut , a jewel of Gothic architecture which was built between the 13th and the 15th century. The impressive building with its 78 meter-high spire (255 feet) is a reminder that Thann, situated on the international Italy-Netherlands axis, was once a famous place of pilgrimage.

A sightseeing path leads you to the town's noteworthy buildings, including to the old corn exchange which now houses the museum.

Thann is also the start of the Alsace Wine Route. It is proud of its traditional wine-production and especially of the famous Rangen vineyard which is spread across the steep hillside. An interesting exhibition lets you discover different local vineyards as well as the winegrowers skills.As an administrative centre, Thann benefits from a strong public service presence such as secondary schools, high-schools, a hospital, a sub-prefecture, a Gendarmerie, a public revenue department, a tax collection office...

The 8000 inhabitants also benefit from quality cultural and sports entities, offering a wide range of activities to individuals and to the town as a whole. Thanks to its diverse shopping area, Thann has also become the dynamic centre of a larger geographical zone. In addition, the economic climate is prosperous due to the many industries and service corporations established in the surrounding areas.
