Kirchheim is a commune in the Bas-Rhin department in Alsace in north-eastern France. ==Geography== Kirchheim is positioned on the western edge of the Alsace plain where it meets the first foothills of the Vosges Mountains. It is to the west of Strasbourg, to the south-east of Saverne and to the north of Molsheim. Adjacent communes are Marlenheim to the north, Odratzheim and Scharrachbergheim-Irmstett to the south and Wangen to the north-west. The village lies within easy walking distance of the main road connecting Saverne to Strasbourg. The former railway line from Molsheim has been developed into a cycle path crossing the commune, but for non cyclists there is a bus service connecting with Strasbourg (route 207) and Molsheim (route 212), both services starting from Wasselonne a short distance to the north-west. The eastern boundary of the commune is provided by the little River Mossig which flows from north to south. A remarkable feature of the ecosystem here is the Riparian zone which provides a biological corridor for the wild life. The commune's residents species include the Great Hamster of Alsace: the animals are threatened with extinction and therefore protected. Most of the surrounding land of grassland or cultivated: to the south-east and to a limited extent to the north-west there are vineyards 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kirchheim, Bas-Rhin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
