Rue des Tanneurs, Pedestrian street with setts in Colmar, France.

The Rue des Tanneurs extends for 200 meters through central Colmar, connecting Grand-Rue to the Quai de la Poissonnerie with traditional stone paving.

During the Middle Ages, this street housed numerous tanneries where craftsmen processed leather, contributing to the economic development of medieval Colmar.

The street maintains its original Alsatian character with multi-story buildings featuring exposed timber frames, colored facades, and decorative window boxes.

The street intersects with Rue des Vignerons, Rue de la Montagne-Verte, and Place du Marché-aux-Fruits, providing access to local shops and restaurants.

Stone markers embedded in the street pavement indicate the former locations of tannery workshops that operated here for centuries.
