Scherwiller

Scherwiller is a commune in the Alsace region that spreads across rolling terrain between vineyards and valleys. The settlement sits at varying elevations, with homes and farms nestled among the wine-growing slopes.

The settlement formed at the crossing of two Roman roads, with milestones from that era still visible today. This position on ancient trade routes shaped the community's growth across the centuries.

The community shares close ties with its German neighbor Fautenbach through regular visits and joint celebrations that shape daily life. These cross-border connections are visible in how locals interact and organize shared events.

The location sits along routes to the wine regions and is easily accessible when exploring the area. Walking paths connect the settlement to the surrounding hills and vineyards, making it good for a leisurely visit.

The commune includes substantial vineyard land that slopes beneath two medieval castles visible from the village. This view with the castle ruins in the distance creates a memorable backdrop for visitors.
