Cara Lisa .ho guardato con grande piacere il tuo Video su Colmar ,la cittadina é meravigliosa ,é, come un gioiellino ,ma quello che più mi impressiona é L'Isenheimer Altar, ogni volta che lo vedo rimango incantata , starei ore ad ammirarlo , ....tanta é la sua bellezza... grazie per avermelo fatto vedere...un gentile saluto...
merci Bianca ! je vois le charme de cette ville encore davantage depuis que je n'y vis plus tous les jours,mais je peux y aller souvent car je n'habite qu'à une distance de 70 kilomètres. Un bonjour pour vous.
+Eusa Maciel It would be quite the walk. You can rent a bike between Colmar and the neighboring villages if you're in good shape. There is public bus service, but it is sparse. There are also companies that do minivan excursions - most leave from Strasbourg. You can take trains between Colmar and Strasbourg. A car is a great way to get around. You can hike in the Route du Vin. Check out our website and France 2016 guidebook for more info: www.ricksteves.com/europe/france/alsace
Glad the Americans were careful not to bomb this beautiful historic city. I only wish they had been careful not to bomb a lot of other historical cities including the two they dropped an atomic bomb on.
@@treeman12815 Not sure about that statement. Paris was liberated in 1944, a full year before the end of the European part of the war, and having given women suffrage in 1944, held their first post war election in 1945. My point, France was already on it way back to full functions. Moreover, US gave millions of $$ to France for recovery. Hence, your statement is not logical.
It's belonged to Germany until 1945 and its population was until then very German, with Alsatian German being the biggest language in the region until the 70s I think. Nowadays German is heavily being suppressed by the French government, but the buildings tell the real story
i have a puzzle with this beautiful city featured, Colmar, France. i decided to look it up on the internet and see if it's been overrun by muslims yet. i didn't find anything that said they had been overrun yet, but then they do sit near the border of Germany, and we all know that both Germany and France are being overrun. how very sad. this was a charming and beautiful city, i'm sure.
Well, actually France is a patchwork of regions with their own culture. We are at the same time from our region and French. I'm first from Provence and then French. Same with Brittany, Alsace, French Riviera, Savoy, Basque Country, Auvergne, Paris, etc.
Alsatians are French and claim it. Your comment is so totally misplaced. But hey, if it makes you feel smart, and it can do you good to gossip, why not?
@@j-loosenfout67 French people really love lying. Just me who remembers the protests after Alsace was removed in favour of being merged to create Grand Est? Ask the people of Alsace during the time of your parents or grandparents and you will get a different story. You're too young to see Alsace as anything other than a culturally ruined copy of Paris just like all other cities in France, and don't worry, I've visited France PLENTY of times, from Paris to Mulhouse to Nice to Grasse and much in between. Alsace used to be unique but your tyrannical government won't have it.
We are visiting tomorrow. Thanks for the tips!
One of the best places to see history "before your very eyes"

History brought me here. Anyone?
A place to belong to
It looks like this video was made in the 1990s
No clue what season this is from but the series was running in the 90s/2000s mostly. So you'd be correct.

But US was part of team with France in ww2
@@Astr0_Feline no they weren’t the us wanted to partition france after ww2

Is this 1990s?
Looks like the early 2000s to me
je serai à colmar avec des amis sérieux
formi formidable!
Looks very German
Half-timbered house are found all over France. It's just less associated with France than with Germany :)

@@exenderlloyd7750 I believe you. My great grand dad was German from Alsace.

how sad indeed...
liwmld Well there's Mosque here .
What's very sad is your obvious bigotry and ignorance. I hope you eventually grow up.
@@TheSakura809 thank you for saying this
We fly at the level of the daisies, there. It's distressing stupidity and primary racism.
The best part of France because it's not France.
KeyWestGlenn I just learned that my family is not French...
