Culture and history
The Tour aux cigognes was added to the former abbey building in 1872 as a tall neo-Gothic tower. The Vieille maison de Munster is one of the oldest houses in the town. Since its first known mention in 1495, it had been owned by craftsmen and merchants. The residents referred to the house as “Bazar” for a long time because it housed a trading business.
