La Fabrique à Bretzels – Boehli, in Gundershoffen, is a tasty visit that is easy to arrange in the Alsace Verte. The tourist office presents it as a space of more than 500 m² devoted to the legendary Alsatian bretzel.
What you discover
The tour explains the secrets of making the bretzel, from preparing the dough to the bag ready to be enjoyed. On weekdays you can watch the production stages; at the weekend the factory is at a standstill, but the process is still explained on screens, with a view over the equipment.
Why it works well during a stay
It is an ideal outing when the weather is uncertain, or to round off a day given over to heritage. The visit speaks to children just as much as to adults: the story of a product, industrial craftsmanship, a tasting and a shop.
