france-voyage.com writes about Bouxwiller: Bouxwiller is one of the most beautiful towns in northern Alsace known for its architectural and historical treasures. It has retained its charm with its half-timbered houses, its remarkable bay windows, alleys that hide more than one curiosity detours. The oldest surviving documentary mention of Bouxwiller can be found in a deed of donation from 724, when goods in Puxuwilare were donated to the Weißenburg monastery.

Sleepy, but historic, worth seeing town center.

Hiking

In Bouxwiller, the entire old town consists of half-timbered houses. Many are beautifully preserved, while others have been worn down by the ravages of time. If you walk through the streets with your eyes open, you'll discover small balconies, bay windows, and colorful paintings on the houses. The houses also still have wooden shutters, which are secured with latches. Some latches depict a man's or woman's head.
