Word of Mouth

Listed as a Historic Monument along with its fortified walls, the village church has a rather unusual clock. Whilst most clocks on buildings gradually had a second hand added from the late 17th century onwards, the one in Hunawihr has retained the single-hand design. The clock also has the distinctive feature of paying homage to its surroundings and one of the village’s main industries by displaying a bunch of grapes and vine leaves!
