Le Parc de Wesserling - Ecomusée textile

Discover Wesserling Park, a former Royal Manufactory and now a multifaceted site where heritage, tourism, the local economy and community life come together as one. Whether you’re visiting for a day or a weekend, start your stroll in one of the five magnificent gardens, all designated ‘Remarkable Gardens’. Life in these gardens follows the rhythm of the seasons: an Easter egg hunt in spring (Easter Madness), imaginary and fantastical gardens in summer (Festival des jardins métissés), a vegetable garden festival in autumn, where the flavours of Wesserling’s amazing vegetable garden and the gardeners’ secrets are shared, and a magical Christmas show across the gardens at dusk, very often in the snow (Noël au jardin), and much more… Each year, a new theme is explored by artists and gardeners: Gulliver, Jules Verne, Alice in Wonderland, etc. A venue for artistic and contemporary expression, Wesserling Park connects us with the textile history of the whole of Alsace. Continue your exploration along a heritage trail amongst the buildings from the textile era. Round off your walk at the Grande Chaufferie, which hosts a remarkable sound and light show and is a delightful place to wander through the old coal-fired boilers via the aerial walkways.
