Parc de Wesserling, Historical textile park in Husseren-Wesserling, France.

The 42-hectare park features five distinct gardens, a textile museum, and industrial buildings that showcase the regional manufacturing heritage of Alsace.

During the late 19th century, this establishment operated as a Royal Factory, becoming one of only two facilities in France producing printed fabrics for the royal court.

The park maintains its textile heritage through regular exhibitions, workshops, and demonstrations that highlight traditional fabric production methods and regional craftsmanship.

The site includes a restaurant, tea room, shop, media library, meeting rooms, and parking facilities, with entry prices at 12 euros for adults and 8 euros for children.

The Grande Chaufferie section allows visitors to explore historical boiler systems within the preserved industrial infrastructure of the former textile manufacturing complex.
