Hindisheim (French pronunciation: [indisaim]) is a commune in the Bas-Rhin department in Alsace in north-eastern France.[3]

Agriculture retains a leading role in the local economy.

Geography

The village is positioned some twenty kilometres (twelve miles) to the south of Strasbourg, beside the little River Andlau.

Landmarks

  • Chapel of the Virgin Mary (fifteenth century). Unusually even in Alsace, this features a half timbered bell tower.
