Christmas in Alsace and Franche-Comté

Winter destinations within reach

Montbéliard is known for its Christmas lights and market, while Kaysersberg and Strasbourg are among Alsace’s established festive destinations. They turn the house into a comfortable base for seasonal day trips rather than a one-place holiday.

Montbéliard: about 20 minutes · Kaysersberg: 1 hr 35 · Strasbourg: 2 hours. Indicative driving times.

Wine, cheese and the French art of living

A region with a real sense of place

The Jura vineyards and Alsace Wine Route offer two distinct wine cultures within the wider region. Closer to home, Comté and Morbier AOP cheeses, Montbéliard sausage and the cooking of Franche-Comté make local markets and shared meals part of everyday life.

From the garden to the mountains

Nature for every season

The Haut-Doubs and Jura offer hiking, mountain biking, lakes, Nordic skiing — particularly cross-country skiing — and other winter activities. The Jura resort of Les Rousses is one example for a longer day out, at approximately 1 hr 40 by car depending on conditions.
