Hi Anne, Rich, all,

Anne, but there IS a nice red spot in the middle of Ensisheim city!
Just enlarge the map by rolloing the mouse! (like on "Google Map").

And you bet, I did so, regarding Ensisheim meteorite.
And to my surprise, the spot (at high "magnification") is neither
situated in the Regency palace (logical) but nor along the road where
there is a well known plaque (about 2 km South from "downtown" Ensi).

No, it is located exactly a few hundred meters West from our famous
"Le Boeuf Rouge" restaurant, not at all far from the new (provisional
for 2013) show location. In a small park, near the river shore.

Intriguing....
I definitely must go there again for a rapid "screening"....hey, one
never knows if, among all these fragments reported to have been broken
by paesants after the fall, some could have survived...?

I keep you informed.
Otherwise, you know what to do after your 2 full days at the show...

Best wishes,

Zelimir
