Rue des Clefs
“Built between 1778 and 1782 as the town residence of the Cistercian abbey of Paris, in the Orbey valley, this vast building became the regional centre of administration during the revolution, before housing the Haut-Rhin Préfecture from 1800 to 1866. In this capacity it received a wide variety of official visits, the Kings Charles X (1828) and Louis-Philippe (1831), then the Prince-President Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte (1850). As the Town Hall since 1866, between 1918 and the present day it has been visited by most of the Presidents of the Republic.”
