When to go à Colmar ?

Colmar is subject to a dry continental climate. It is the second driest city in France. Winter temperatures are close to zero. In March, temperatures gradually rise until they become very pleasant in May. From June to August, the sun is shining, the temperature is around 25°C during the day, 15°C at night. It is the most pleasant season. The most favourable of the year. A few more sunny days in September. By November, the weather is already gloomy.

It is in summer that Colmar is the most pleasant to visit, under the sun, the heat is rarely hot. Spring and early fall are also suitable. The rest of the year the weather is rather gloomy.

So discovering Colmar at the end of the year is not lacking in charm. It's the magic of Christmas! And in any case, if it rains, the many museums await you.
