Cool Stuff in the Unterlinden Museum in Colmar, France
The figure with the enlarged liver is a reminder, drink in moderation!
Alsace was Germany, France, the Rhineland, all mixed up. It is fully French now, and I seem to have roots there.
Colmar is a fine city, with everything to please!
The Unterlinden Museum does close for lunch, in civilized Euro fashion, but keep your ticket stub and go back after lunch and a siesta! You will need a full day to see this place, and off-season, such as March 26, 2010 when I was there, is ideal.
Every kind of art, furnishing and object can be found here. If you like Grünewald or Christian stuff, you are in for a treat, but equally if you like furniture, metals, keys, toys and ceramics.
