Rouffach in Alsace, France

 
Coming back from France we are usually passing a wonderful little town in Alsace.
Rouffach, known already in 662 as Rubiaco and 600 years later as Rubiacum*
(4574 inhabitants *- Wikipedia)

We parked our car 
 
 
and were looking back from where we came
 

 
small passage and a glimpse on to the church Notre Dame de l'Assomption
roman and gothic style

 
looking at the church through leaves

 
an old well

 
 
and an entrance

 
no car passage

 
searching for a café



 
again the cathedral which is really a church
 

 
and finally the church
of course it did not fit into my camera
(and I am afraid of using third-party photos)
 
 

 
market place

 
our coffee and DH just lifted his cup away
we sat at the

 
...restaurant A l'ours Noir - restaurant  Black Bear
how I saw it with my cuppa in my hand...
 
We enjoyed this little sightseeing tour
