Map / Alsace Way of St. James: Guebwiller - Thann

Selected alternatives for you
    The Alsace Way of St. James should actually have been called "Way of St. James Grand Est" since 2016, but traditions live long. The path leads from Strasbourg to Thann, where it joins routes from Freiburg i.B. and Basel heading westwards.

    This last stage on the Alsace Way of St. James takes us southwards again to Uffholtz, then we enter the valley of the stream «La Thur», which comes from the area of the Burgundy Gate, so from the west. Until the stage destination Thann, we now follow this stream.
    Alsace was also German-speaking at times throughout its history, and the Alsatians mostly speak German and French, or often even mix both languages colorfully. We can thus slowly adjust linguistically, as French will soon dominate. Thann is a small town with a pretty old town and a worth-seeing cathedral, so we will feel comfortable here. Our stage ends in front of the Office de Tourisme.

    The stages in this documentation are suggestions that every pilgrim can adapt to their wishes. However, the technical data always assume that these stages are completed in one day each.
