Places to see in ( Strasbourg - France ) La Wantzenau
La Wantzenau (German: Wanzenau) is a commune in the Bas-Rhin department in Grand Est in north-eastern France. The town is located 12 km northeast of Strasbourg. It is the last village along the Ill river before it joins the Rhine a few kilometres downstream. The village limits touch the border with Germany, although the closest bridge across the Rhine is in Gambsheim, 10 km north of the village. It is one of the villages of greater Strasbourg (Strasbourg Eurométropole). The village centre and the recently developed area, Le Golf, are on the north side of the river Ill with the neighbourhood of Le Woerthel on the south side.
The terrain around the village is very flat and marshy. In fact the ending au in the name denotes in Alsatian a town which is subject to seasonal flooding. The town was probably founded in the 8th century as a fishing outpost of Honau, a nearby monastery founded by Irish monks on an island in the Rhine river. The name does not appear in any records until 1331 as Wanzenowe. It was granted status as a parish by the bishop-prince of Strasbourg in 1468. During the Thirty Years' War, in the early 17th century, the town was completely wiped out by Swedish troops. It was also badly damaged during both World Wars. There are many signs of the town's experience with war. Rue Albert Zimmer is named for a soldier who became a local hero fighting with General Leclerc in World War II, only to be killed in fighting near Strasbourg in 1944. The town is dotted with bunkers and blockhouses from the Maginot Line, especially in the La Wantzenau forest. There is also a German-made bunker visible in the house on the corner of the rue Leh and the rue du Moulin.
Today, the town has preserved many 18th century half-timbered Alsatian-style houses. The town has graded a promenade along the Ill river. It is connected to a network of bicycle lanes including the Piste des Forts which circles greater Strasbourg, and a path through the La Wantzenau forest through La Robertsau and into downtown Strasbourg. La Wantzenau is well known in the region for the high number of fine restaurants including Le Relais de la Poste, Les Semailles and Le Moulin de la Wantzenau, the last vestiges of a now closed cooking school in the town. The town is twinned with Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche in Haute-Vienne because the population of La Wantzenau was evacuated there at the start of the war with Germany in 1939.
La Wantzenau is a bedroom community of Strasbourg. It combines the advantages of village life with individual houses while still being part of the CUS with train and bus transportation to the centre of Strasbourg. 73% of the working population works outside of the village.
The centre of the town has several commercial establishments including a grocery store, two bakeries and two tobacconists. There are also several public buildings including a post office, the town hall, the Foyer Culturel, the Jean-Claude Klein sports complex, a football stadium, two pre-schools, a primary school, and a junior highschool.

Kaolin, the clay crucial to the production of Limoges porcelain
Kaolin, the clay crucial to the production of porcelain, is how the town of Saint-Yrieix made its wealth. Learn about this white gold, from its discovery and extraction to its use in the local area, especially in the Marcognac quarries, which are now classed as Monuments Historiques.
The city of Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche prospered in the 18th and 19th centuries thanks to a raw material found in the ground: kaolin, which is essential for the production of genuine porcelain. The clay, which has been used for more than 2,000 years in China and since the start of the 18th century in Germany, was discovered for the first time in France in 1768 by the surgeon Jean-Baptiste Darnet, in Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche.
Kaolin’s properties mean that porcelain can be fired at over 1,200°C, allowing for optimal hardness without affecting its white colour. In light of kaolin’s exceptional advantages, King Louis XV bought the first vein to fuel the royal manufacturer in Sèvres. In Limoges, the first porcelain factory opened in 1771, soon followed by many others, in both Limoges and Saint-Yrieix. The exploitation of kaolin marked the beginning of the porcelain industry in Limoges and created an unprecedented economic and social dynamic in this rural area.
A craze developed and led to dozens of quarries opening near Saint-Yrieix. The most productive was the quarry in Marcognac, located around 5 km from the city centre. Today, the site is protected and classified as a Historic Monument. It is accessible to visitors.
During its 200 years of existence, from 1786 to 1986, the Marcognac quarry produced several thousand tons of kaolin. After being extracted with a pickaxe, the kaolin was sorted, cleaned and dried before being taken to the mills, where it was crushed. Working conditions were tough and the dust caused serious illnesses, such as tuberculosis and silicosis.
Today, the Seynie, founded in 1774 in Saint-Yrieix-la-Perche, is the oldest porcelain factory in Limoges still in business. It manufactures both traditional and contemporary works.

UNIQUE PROPERTY WITH PLENTY OF OPTIONS
This property really is a complete ?one off? and offers the prospective purchaser a number of possibilities. One could use the property as a business venture in terms of perhaps a bed and breakfast/lodging establishment, or build up to six properties on the attached constructible land or merely retain it as a family home with ample land for horses etc.
Firstly the location is absolutely ideal as a catchment area for tourism being based in open countryside yet just a stones throw away from the tourist lake of Saint Pardoux, one of the largest tourist lakes in the Limousin. The village itself is incredibly French and unspoilt but certainly caters for the tourist. There are numerous activities available for lovers of the outdoors and the lake itself is more than geared up for tourism with numerous water sports, sailing, fishing, rambling, cycling, horse riding, hot air ballooning etc all being available to the tourist.
The property was originally an Auberge and was purpose built to offer short or long term accommodation. It consists of the main Auberge and the accommodation block, both being independent of one another. A private driveway leads into the property area and the main house has a covered terrace/decking area to the side and rear. Underneath this there is ample storage room and there is also an internal utility/cellar. Back at ground floor level there is a spacious entrance area which is equipped with a toilet and also a bar. From here there is a professionally equipped kitchen in stainless steel and a utility area. The remainder of this building is then given over to private accommodation.

The accommodation block is self contained and consists of 2 entrance areas, 8 bedrooms with en suite facilities, 2 bedrooms with a shared bathroom, an independent toilet, storage cupboard, utility and laundry room. Both properties need a little maintenance and a bit of a tidy up but that said they are in a perfectly habitable condition.
The property sits in its own land of approximately 12 acres. There is a garden area to the front of the Auberge, a garden area around the accommodation block, a small vineyard and the remainder is given over to field. Of this remaining plot there is building permission for up to 6 properties, the constructible area being approx 5 acres.

Limoges porcelain manufacturing and contemporary porcelain
This film unveils the secrets of how Limoges porcelain is manufactured. Jean-Paul Tarrade, the director of LS Art et Création, invites us on an unprecedented tour of the oldest Saint-Yrieix production site still in operation.
A true bridge between the past and the present, the Limoges porcelain factory, La Seynie, founded in 1774 in Yrieix-la-Perche, is still in business today and operates under the name LS Art et Création. In light of global competition and ever-changing consumption patterns, in recent years its production, initially intended for tableware, has shifted to contemporary design. The brand makes its know-how available to artists, who create original porcelain creations. It also supplies products imagined by designers to Michelin-starred chefs at high-end venues.
Its director, Jean-Paul Tarrade, explains the different steps involved in creating a porcelain object.
Interview:
The steps involved in producing a porcelain object are as follows:
1. Modelling (part shown by the film in the workshop)
First, the body of the porcelain is modelled. Modelling is a technique that requires passion, experience and, of course, technical skills. The model can be made based on a sketch, inspired by a new design, or can reflect the moulding of an existing porcelain product.
2. Moulding
The second step is making the production mould.
3. Casting
The third step is casting in the production mould in order to reproduce the shape that was modelled. When I say casting, I mean pouring what is known in the porcelain world as a slurry, kaolin combined with feldspar and quartz, mixed with water, into the mould. In short, it’s a liquid paste.
When the crust inside the mould has been formed, the excess liquid is drained from the mould. Once a sufficient amount of time has passed, you can proceed to demoulding.
4. Demoulding
Demoulding involves removing the piece and letting it dry.
5. Finishing
The sixth step is finishing. What does finishing involve? It means removing any traces left by the mould on the casted shape.
6. First firing
After the finish comes the first firing. The temperature should be around 900 degrees, which will give the fired item a solid consistency.
Then there are two options. The first option is to keep it unglazed for the final firing, which will be at around 1,352 degrees. Fired but unglazed pottery is called “biscuit” porcelain. The second option is to glaze the item, which means there will be another operation to perform.
7. Glazing
This process involves dipping the item in the glazing tray.
8. Second firing
Next, you place it inside the baking furnace, where a phenomenon called refraction takes place: the item you put in will come out 14% smaller, in a completely uniform way.
9. Choosing
Afterwards, the item must once again be inspected. This is because firing the clay at high temperatures often leads to imperfections, which requires sorting. The step is important because you must determine the choices that will be offered to end customers. At this point, the product can either be sold in white, directly glazed or unglazed, the latter being the so-called “biscuit” version, or you proceed to the decorating stage.
10. Decorating
During the last step, and of course depending on the items to be made, the decorating technique must be carefully considered. This is important because depending on the pigments used, the item may need to be fired two, three or even four times. As you can see, there are many operations to perform before obtaining the finished product.
