Embark on a Dazzling Crystal Journey: Private Lalique & Saint-Louis Tour

Unveil the brilliance of French crystal craftsmanship on this exclusive private day trip, departing from Strasbourg.

In the comfort of your air-conditioned vehicle, your English-speaking guide will meet you directly at your centrally located Strasbourg accommodation. Together, you will review the itinerary and program, ensuring a personalized experience tailored to your interests.

Discover the Lalique Museum in Wingen-sur-Moder

Your adventure begins at the Lalique Museum in Wingen-sur-Moder, nestled beside the historic Hochberg Glassworks. Immerse yourself in the artistry of René Lalique, the visionary jeweler who revolutionized Art Nouveau and Art Deco glass design. Explore a stunning collection of more than 650 works, including exquisite jewelry, iconic Art Deco glass, and contemporary crystal pieces.

A highlight of the museum is the breathtaking display of over 250 perfume bottles and powder boxes, showcasing Lalique’s collaborations with renowned perfume houses such as Molinard, d’Orsay, and Roger & Gallet.

To elevate your visit, you may choose to enjoy an optional gourmet lunch (at your own expense) at the renowned two‑Michelin‑starred Villa Lalique. Surrounded by Lalique creations, Chef Paul Stradner offers a refined culinary experience that highlights local producers and seasonal Alsatian ingredients.

Visit the Historic Saint-Louis Crystal Factory

Following your Lalique exploration, continue to the prestigious Saint-Louis Crystal Factory, whose origins date back to 1586. Formerly known as the Royal Glassworks under Louis XV, Saint‑Louis became one of the first manufactories in Europe to master lead crystal and has since earned an international reputation for excellence.

Today, the Cristallerie Saint‑Louis is celebrated for its emblematic Trianon model and an extensive range of creations, from tableware and vases to chandeliers and decorative objects that combine tradition and innovation.

Guided Tour of the Manufacture & Workshops

Embark on a captivating guided tour through the Saint‑Louis manufacture and witness exceptional craftsmanship at close range. Walk through the hot‑shop to watch master glassmakers gather, blow, and shape molten crystal with remarkable precision and speed.

Continue on to observe cutters, engravers, and decorators as they carve, etch, and hand‑paint details that bring each piece to life. Enjoy privileged access to the chandelier assembly workshop and the celebrated paperweight workshop, where Saint‑Louis is still the only contemporary crystal maker to create two new paperweight collections every year.

Comptoir de la Manufacture & Return to Strasbourg

End your visit at the Comptoir de la Manufacture, where you can admire finished pieces and, if you wish, purchase exceptional Saint‑Louis creations to take home as a unique souvenir of your day.

After this immersive journey into the heart of French crystal making, relax on the drive back to Strasbourg, where your guide will drop you off at your accommodation. This private tour offers a rare blend of history, artistry, and dazzling beauty that crystal lovers and design enthusiasts will never forget.
