Dolder Belfry

" Overlooking the town, the watchtower Dolder is Riquewihr’s iconic monument. It also houses a unique museum that tells the history of the town from the 12th to 17th centuries. "

Classified as a "Musée de France", the Dolder (1291) reveals Riquewihr as a fortified medieval town and its evolution from the 13th to the 17th century: its lords (the Württemberg family), its passive defences (fortifications, parapet walks, towers, gates) and active defences (weapons, bourgeois soldiers); the tower's occupants and their functions (gatekeepers, watchmen, night watchmen). From the top of the tower (25m), there's a fine view over the roofs of the city, towards the plain and the Black Forest.
Admission: €3 per person.
