Bergheim (French pronunciation: [bɛʁɡaim] <phonos file="LL-Q150 (fra)-Mathieu Kappler-Bergheim.wav"></phonos>) is a commune in the Haut-Rhin department in Grand Est in north-eastern France.[2]
It is a completely fortified town and has a late-medieval church, as well as surviving towers and walls. The entire population was wiped out by two wars and the plague in the 17th-18th centuries. To replace the population, thousands of people from other countries were invited to immigrate to Bergheim. The majority of people who immigrated at that times were Swiss, German, Hungarian, Austrian, or Romanian.
The city economy is based on tourism and the viticulture that surrounds the town. It is a member of Les Plus Beaux Villages de France (The Most Beautiful Villages of France) Association.
