Former St-John "Commanderie"
“The Hospitaller order of Saint Jean of Jerusalem settled in Colmar between 1191 and 1210, and constructed the buildings of their Commanderie in the second half of the 13th century. The original chapel which was completed in 1268 was remoddelled in the 16th century; some aspects of the street and courtyard facades remain, including the portal with geminate tympanum. The remainder was rebuilt in the 19th century and the building now houses a private educational establishment.”
