Christmas Treasure Hunt - Discovering the Éclat d'Obernai

Obernai

From 25/11/2026 to 06/01/2027

From November 25 to January 6, set off on an adventure through 57 villages and towns in Alsace! Your mission: to find, step by step, the Christmas shards scattered throughout the region to make the Alsatian Christmas Flame shine.
Among these “Éclats,” one is hidden right here… Can you find it?”

Welcome to Obernai, adventurers of the Alsatian Christmas Flame!
Upon arriving in Obernai, the Spark is said to have landed on the Place de l’Étoile, where barrels were once measured before wine was sold! The magic of the Spark is said to have awakened the spirit of an old barrel, guardian of the square’s memory! L’Éclat rushed inside, but the barrel closed behind him… to get in, you must find the magic phrase that can open it. Solve the puzzles and gather the clues to piece together this secret phrase!

Pick up your passport at a tourist office (valid for all 57 scavenger hunts in Alsace) and the game sheet (downloadable). As you progress through your adventure, fill out the grid on the back of this sheet: once completed, it will grant you access to L’Éclat

Bring along: a pen and your passport, and a flashlight if you’re heading out in the evening.
