The Bailliff's Court, Bergheim, Alsace, France

During the 17th century, the property belonged to the provost-marshal Georges Kentzinger. The building retains its 18th century timber galleries and stairs. The oldest wing (in the right hand courtyard) dates from 1582. At the beginning of the 19th century the house belonged to Gabriel Israël Sée, whose son Léopold was the first Jew in France to become a major general. A well dated 1566 and a 16th century cellar can still be seen.
