Trying to find my great grandmother's birth registered in Alsace

My great grandmother Mathilde Marie Forst ( sometimes Marie Mathilde Forst) was born in Marlenheim in 1873/4 I think her father was called Michel and was a farmer. I can't find her anywhere outside of the UK on my genealogy site and have no idea how to search in France.

I would be so grateful if you could help/put me in the right direction.

I LOVE the thought of having roots in Alsace and hope to visit next year. I am already cooking food from the area,it's so interesting!

Kind Regards
