Before you set off
Times and prices come from the events calendar of the L'Alsace Verte tourist office, edition of 3 October 2026. They may change: a call to the organiser or to the Niederbronn-les-Bains office (6 place de l'Hôtel de Ville, +33 3 88 80 89 70) avoids surprises. Two of the guided tours above are in French only; for the others, it is best to ask. All events in the area are listed in the tourist office's online calendar (in French).
