Saessolsheim is a charming village located in the heart of Alsace, in the East of France.

Since the wonderdul new organ was built by Bernard Aubertin &endash; one of the best French organ builders &endash; various organ, instrumental and vocal concerts have been held with the participation of professional performers and ensembles displaying their talent mostly in early music repertoires.

In the summer, an international Organ Academy attracts organists from various European countries.

Thanks to its exceptional standards, the organ has been selected and used for numerous CD recordings.
