Old Customs House (Koïfhus)

Adolph House. Built around 1350, this house is considered to be one of the oldest in Colmar. It owns its name to the Adolph family, who removed the gothic picture windows at the end of the 19th century.

Nestled among vineyards, its traditional houses, canals, floral displays, amazing cuisine, famous wines and charming accommodation make Colmar an outstanding microcosm of Alsace – showcasing its lifestyle, conviviality and hospitality – the key features of its unique, exceptional welcome.

This historic monument, probably the most famous house in Colmar is located at number 19, rue des Têtes. The street owes its name to the 106 small human heads carved on the facade of the house dating from 1606. Classified as a historical monument, this house of Renaissance style is one of the symbols of Colmar.
