Surrounded by an impressive Medieval wall, Turckheim is a charming commune situated in the Alsace region of France. The wall has three famous doors: the Door of France, which leads out to Colmar, the Door of Brand, which stands as the beginning of the route de vins, and the Door of Munster, which faces towards the Munster Valley. The lovely commune is famous for its Night Watchman, a native of the town who dresses up in traditional garb and embarks on rounds of the area. Timber-trimmed houses painted in colorful pastels draw architecture-loving tourists each year.
Les stigmates de l'histoire sont visibles en plusieurs endroits de ce lieu. La tour, aujourd'hui en ruine, de l'ancien château impérial domine toujours la petite ville. Un pont fortifié témoigne de la position stratégique de ce dernier entre l'Alsace et la Lorraine. Les façades des maisons à colombages des XVIe et XVIIe siècles donnent son cachet à la commune. C'est également à Kaysersberg que se trouve la maison natale d'Albert Schweitzer.
