Posted in Europe, Food and Wine, France

We have driven in the area and would like to have an imprint in my blog on the wonderful towns of my belle France, There is so much to see , doing my best, and glad found me these older paper pictures which now transposing in my blog for you and me, The pictures are old ,so the quality may not be as good ,but the memories are forever, The town of Niedermorschwihr is located in the Haut-Rhin dept 68 administrative district and, since January 1, 2021, in the territory of the European Community of Alsace, in the Grand Est region of my belle France. This town is located in the historical and cultural region of Alsace. Therefore, here is my take on this is Niedermorschwihr !!! Hope you enjoy the post as I.

I came by after having read and found it ! The Maison Ferber ,18 rue des Trois-Epis, Christine Ferber is a pastry, confectioner, chocolate maker, glacier, baker, and caterer, You will find good things in this shop dedicated to the products of the Maison Ferber…. Jams, chocolates and other sweets , This star (in Japan as in Colmar) is a night worker who chooses her fruit with love, selects the best black cherries, the most ripe oranges, the rare blueberries of the woods. Christine Ferber cooked in copper basins and imagines divine perfumes. I could not confirm read this address Au Relais des Trois Epis is closed but shows in her webpage as Maison Ferber, The official Maison Ferber : https://www.christineferber.com/

Some other things to see here with more time are the Saint-Gall Church, Chapel Saint-Wendelin and several houses on the sublime rue des Trois-Épis ,these are Maison de Vigneron (1619), 133 rue des Trois-Épis, Oriel (1562), 15 rue des Trois-Épis, Maison de Vigneron (1548), 16 rue des Trois-Épis ; Maison de Vigneron (16-17C), 124 rue des Trois-Épis, former house of the knights of Malta (1780), 80-81 rue des Trois-Épis ; and Former Auberge aux-Trois-Rois (17-18C), 135 rue des Trois-Épis.

The village is known as Morswilre in 1148, name appeared in a Pope bull. Later, in the 16C, the town was renamed Niedermorschwihr ; it belonged half to the Empire and half in the Habsburg. The story goes the Trois-Épis were born from a pilgrimage dedicated to the Virgin and founded in 1491: indeed, the Virgin would have appeared there for a blacksmith of Orbey, holding three ears of wheat with one hand, on the other a hailstone . The pilgrimage quickly resumed, after being interrupted by the Thirty Years War. A priory founded in 1651 was suppressed during the French revolution. The pilgrimage, however, still exists ! The village was decorated on November 11, 1948, with the Cross of War 1939-1945

I am a lover of travels to Europe , Americas , Africa and Asia as well ,who like to share my experiences of the last 53 years with the world, visiting so far 81 countries; living in 6, working in 5, and Citizen of 4, speaking fluently 4 languages. I can deal with sports especially football/soccer and love music, arts, wine collector/drinker, and go out to restaurants, and just visit the world. My background comes all the way from Candelaria and Pajara in Tenerife, Spain where my grandparents came from ;not knowing each other then, to Punta Brava, west of Havana, Cuba. There , my parents born in Cuba met and later on I was born there too. 100% guanche (annexed Tenerife to Spain on April 10 ,1496). I left Cuba as many have to Madrid, Spain where I lived for 4 years. Then, move to Perth Amboy ,New Jersey USA (living there 13 yrs) ; where I completed high school, became a US Citizen, learned to drive a car, and learned English. Afterward, went to the university in Florida, ERAU, and upon graduation decided to moved there to Ormond by the Sea, near Daytona Beach, finally moving North Miami, then Hialeah, then another moved to Silver Lakes division in Miramar, Broward county, Florida; in Florida I lived a total of 18 years. Finally , moved to France in 2003 ,Versailles call me for its royalty, and working in Paris was great. It was time to seek frontiers again and moved to Brech near Auray, Morbihan in Brittany , and later move to not too far Pluvigner. Total so far in France has been 20 years, and counting. Moving average a home every 5.5 years hopefully this will be my last. Cheers All rights reserved.
