Cultural associations Alsace

The main mission of the Maison de la Nature is to raise public awareness of the need to protect natural areas. Birdwatching and wetland exploration are just some of the riches to be discovered along the old canal path. The former lock-keeper's house is a showcase for the values it instills in its sometimes unusual workshops. Numerous events, conferences and debates to follow. For children, there are activities to share with friends, to be found on the site.

Affirm the presence of contemporary art in Alsace and contribute to its development: these are the objectives of CEAAC, whose space is open to the public at Krutenau. His first mission: to raise public awareness of contemporary creation, including the installation of monumental sculptures in public space, production of exhibitions and artistic advice to local communities. His second credo: support Alsatian artists for specific artistic projects by promoting international exchanges through residences and exhibitions of regional artists abroad and vice versa. The International Space hosting the CEAAC presents the works made in connection with these exchanges, the calendar of expos is visible on the Internet or on the Facebook page.

This brotherhood is one of the oldest in France. It works to promote the knowledge of Alsatian wines. The headquarters of the Confrérie Saint-Étienne is located at the Château de Kientzheim. It includes an extraordinary wine library with the oldest vintages dating back to 1834! The Confrérie Saint-Étienne also issues the coveted "Sigille" label, guaranteeing the quality of the wines concerned. Throughout the year, it organizes thematic oenological events dedicated to oenophiles and neophytes wishing to learn about Alsace wines.
