Geography

The town is situated in Sundgau between the towns of Mulhouse (approximately 27 km north) and Belfort (approximately 23 km west) and lies on the river Largue, a tributary of the Ill (a river which flows into the Rhein). It can be reached via the Routes départementales D-103 (Thann-Delle) and D-419 (Belfort-Altkirch-Basel).

History

In 1016 the town is mentioned as Danamarachiricha meaning "Church of the Lady Mary". Throughout history the name changed several times and took on some French and German forms. The name in the local German language was Dammerskirch. From the thirteenth century until 1324 it was part of the Ferrette region. Until the end of the Thirty Years' War in 1648 it was ruled over by the House of Habsburg before falling under the jurisdiction of Cardinal Mazarin.

After the French Revolution it became part of the Belfort district. In 1870 Altkirch became attached to this administrative framework. Today it is part of the Haut-Rhin department.

In August 1914, during the First World War, French troops moved in during the fighting on the approaching Western Front and it became the military headquarters.

Historic sites

• The railway viaduct on the Belfort-Mülhausen line is a 493m long stone arched bridge over the Largue. It was built in 1862 and has since been rebuilt and destroyed four times, in 1870, 1914, 1915 and 1944.
• The town hall or Hôtel de Ville.[3]

Notable residents

• Peter von Hagenbach (c1420-1474), Burgundian Landvogt.

• Leo Justinus Kauffmann (1901–1944), composer, was born in Dannemarie.
