An enchanting event in the heart of the village

The celebration takes place in the centre of Muttersholtz, a charming little Alsatian village surrounded by many waterways, between the Pont du Neugraben and the Halle des Synergies. The flat-bottomed boat is the ideal craft for navigating the Ried, and it is the Batelier du Ried (the Ried boatman) who is tasked with bringing Father Christmas safely ashore. Half a day is enough to enjoy it to the full.
