I think you are right. Now with what you wrote as a city name i can see it.
IMHO it may be the Muntzenheim. About 12km North-East of the Colmar and about 3km South of Jebsheim.

This tank is the The "Kaysersberg": a Panther Ausf G captured during the liberation of Kaysersberg, in Alsace, on the 18th of December 1944. It was used by the 1er RCA, part of the 5ème DB until it broke down on the 4th of April 1945. It's most famous action was the liberation of Colmar were it fought alongside Sherman tanks.3rd ID- US GIs w/ Captured German PANTHER Tank - ALSACE France Panzerkampfwagen V, Panther Sd.Kfz. 171 captured beute Colmar pocket 03-02-1945

For Eastern Europe at the time of war, it's almost a highway!!! I just would like to say that the Panthers were used in much worse conditions.For the reliabilty question of the Panther, 18th of December 1944 to 4th of April 1945 is 108 days. Parts would have been a big problem One can see the terrain it had to work in.
I love the Nelsons - a design that really put the 'battle' in 'battleship'HMS Rodney
