Another one of Auguste Bartholdi’s statues, the Roesselmann Fountain was sculpted in 1888, and the bronze statue above represents the public judge Jean Roesselmann. He passed away while defending Colmar against the Bishop of Strasbourg, and he is also considered to be the first hero of the city. The statue was taken away by the Germans in 1943, but was restored and reinstalled in 1945 on a white stone monument decorated with four fishes. Today people use the steps below it to sit on.

Maison Herzer built in 1592.

The Church of the Dominicans (Église des Dominicains), is a major work of the architecture of the mendicant orders, that began construction in 1283. The Dominicans who arrived in 1278, were driven out of the city temporarily in 1330. Since 1973, it houses "The Virgin at the Buisson de Roses" (La Vierge au buisson de roses), the masterpiece of Martin Schongauer.
