The village of Oberhaslach is found in the Bas Rhin department of north eastern France. Its proximity to Germany means that the language and culture of the town has been influenced by both French and German history. In fact, in your EasyToBook.com discount hotel in Oberhaslach, it’s very likely that you will hear both German and French being spoken.

The town has long depended on agriculture, particularly on animal husbandry. In fact, the town’s coat of arms shows the type of staff often used by shepherds in the region. It has also earned the name of ‘Village of Flowers’ for the great variety and beauty of flowers that grow in the area. Nideck Castle is an interesting place to spend an afternoon, and perhaps even to have a picnic. Though in ruins now, it is still possible to envision the one time glory of the structure. The tower still stands, and there are a number of nooks and crannies to explore. There is also a waterfall, Cascade du Nideck, right nearby. Or, pilgrims may want to visit the Hermitage of St. Florent, where the saint supposedly once lived.
