ArtolsheimArtolsheim is a commune in the Bas-Rhin department in Alsace in northeastern France.WWW artolsheim.frGeographyArtolsheim has the distinction of being further from the sea than any other place in France. The Gulf of Genoa and the mouth of the river Scheldt are both away.EconomyEmployment opportunities in the village are limited. The traditional economic focus of the region is Sélestat some fifteen kilometres to the west. The river crossing of Marckolsheim with its associated locks and hydro-electric power station offer employment opportunities: many mostly low-paid seasonal jobs are also provided by the Europa-Park 'theme park'.
