Albé
Albé (French pronunciation: [albe] ; German: Erlenbach) is a commune in the Bas Rhin département in Alsace in north-eastern France.
It is located 2 km (1.2 mi) northeast of Villé, on the left bank of the river Giessen close to the valley of Erlenbach, from which it derives its name. To the north and west it is bounded by mountains leading to the communes of Hohwald and Breitenbach. To the east is the peak of Ungersberg. Numerous streams flow from this mounting and the buttresses of the Champ du Feu to the north, which merge to form the brook of the Erlenberg. This river formerly flowed down the main street of the village, but has now been covered. The village is at approximately 300 m (980 ft) altitude.
Until 1867 the village was known by its German name Erlenbach (in a number of variations) (In romance languages Erlen shortens to 'Al' and bach becomes ba and thence bé). The name Albé was formally adopted in 1919.
Under Louis XIV it was awarded a coat of arms emblazoned "Azure, three chevrons Argent". The azure perhaps suggests the river and the three chevrons a narrow boxed valley.
