Petite Camargue Alsacienne, National nature reserve in Saint-Louis, France.

The Petite Camargue Alsacienne stretches across 904 hectares, encompassing wetlands, dry grasslands, and alluvial forests along the Rhine River borders of France, Germany, and Switzerland.

Established in 1982 as the first National Nature Reserve in Alsace, the site previously housed an imperial fish farm built under Napoleon III in 1852.

The reserve features the Rhine Memory Museum and educational facilities where visitors learn about local ecosystems through guided tours and exhibitions.

Visitors can access marked trails from March to October, with guided tours available by contacting the management office at 1 rue de la Pisciculture in Saint-Louis.

The reserve houses a research station funded by Swiss institutions that studies ecological patterns, including specific research on nightingale behavior patterns.
