Historic cellar of the Hospices de Strasbourg, in existence since 1395, with the world's oldest wine in barrels
The historic cellar of the Hospices de Strasbourg dates back to 1395, and was used as early as the Middle Ages to store wine, grain and other perishable goods. 600 years later, it has retained its original function. The sumptuous vaulted cellar exudes the aromas of wines stored in some fifty restored oak rooms and three historic foudres dating from 1472, 1519 and 1525. The oldest contains the oldest cask wine in the world!

The entrance is free of charge and there was no queue on a Monday.
Seeing the various wine barrels was very interesting, including the story on the barrel from 1472 which is also displayed.
The wine from 1472 is still kept in a barrel in that cellar!
On a side note, the Hospices building where the cellar is located is really interesting looking and the cellar also offers a cool break from the heat on hot days.
