The Tour Neuve, also called the bell tower or knight's tower, is a remnant of the second enclosure built in 1280. Originally, the New Tower consisted of a crenellated terrace, decorated at the four corners with hexagonal watchtowers. A front door, a kind of open-air vestibule, formed a first defense and sheltered the drawbridge. A door pierced in the tower at the level of the rampart provided communication between the defenders of the advance and those of the enclosure. With the development of artillery at the beginning of the 17th century, the tower underwent changes. A second masonry has been built on the terrace, set slightly back, on which four watchtowers rest. In 1891, the Tour Neuve was hit by a fire that destroyed part of the district and left it without a roof for months. If you visit the New Tower there are several frescoes to admire. One represents some city businesses in the Middle Ages, the other a scene of hunting and the grape harvest. The vault depicts the lion of Sélestat and the Habsburg eagle.

House Fels

Highlight • Other

This elegant 18th-century residence features the most important gateway from the time of the Regent's rule in Sélestat.

In the cornice is the coat of arms of the physicist and mayor Bernard Joseph Fels (1701-1761) and that of the Rebstock family: two lions entwine the two escutcheons.

Sainte-Foy Church of Sélestat

Highlight • Religious Site

The Sainte-Foy church, whose architecture is more reminiscent of Lorraine and Burgundy than Rhenish Romanesque, is an important part of the Romanesque route in Alsace and one of the oldest buildings in the city.
The three-towered Romanesque church is all that remains of an earlier priory that belonged to the Benedictine abbey of Sainte-Foy in Conques.
