Fischer Brewery, Brewery and historical monument in Schiltigheim, France

The Fischer Brewery complex features industrial architecture with prominent red brick buildings and large windows illuminating the production areas.

Founded in 1821 in Strasbourg, the brewery moved to Schiltigheim in 1854 to benefit from superior water quality for beer production.

The Fischer Brewery represents a cornerstone of Alsatian beer making traditions, combining French and German brewing methods throughout its operation.

The brewery produced various beer types until 2009, when Heineken transferred operations to another facility in Schiltigheim following acquisition.

Fischer Brewery developed the Desperados brand, introducing tequila-flavored beer that gained recognition across European markets.
