Kugelhopf ranks second in the culinary landscape of famous Alsatian recipes and dishes, just
after the choucroute garnie. A tall, fluted coffee bread that is dusted in confectioners’ sugar and
mild in flavor, kugelhopf is an everyday bread that is known historically for being served before
weddings and other traditional ceremonies. Available year-round, kugelhopf easily can be
found inside most Alsatian bakeries. A delightful bread that can be enjoyed morning, noon, or
night, kugelhopf pairs well with coffee, tea, and liqueurs like kirsch.

If you take a look at Place du Château (where a model of the cathedral weighing 200
kilos, was built in bronze in 2015 to commemorate the millennium of the foundations of
the cathedral of Strasbourg), right near the cathedral, you’ll see on the ground a
monument of “future archaeology”: the Vault for the Future (Caveau du Futur).

The pink sandstone facade, 66 meters high, is a summary of architectural art from the 13th to
