Hohwiller is a remarkable little village that will charm you with its beautiful half-timbered houses, most of which date back to the 18th century. During the summer months, it's pleasant to stroll around and take note of the care taken with the flower beds. The commune has been awarded 4 flowers by the national "towns and villages in bloom" label. On the way up through the village towards Soultz-sous-Forêts, we recommend a stop at the Saint-Jean-Baptiste church. This building is a simultaneum, serving both Protestant and Catholic faiths. Inside, admire the 15th-century frescoes painted by an unknown artist. The most important work depicts a Eucharistic Mill. There are now only thirteen churches in the world with such a mill. Eleven of them are in Germany, the other two in northern Alsace, in the Alsace Verte region.
