Strasbourg is an amazing city at the intersection of French and German cultures, with a rich history and cozy atmosphere. Located on the Ile River and known as the “capital of Europe”, it combines medieval quarters, modern institutions and picturesque waterfronts, creating a unique mix of architecture and everyday life.
Strasbourg’s man-made sights give a clear idea of its significance and beauty: what to see first of all – the majestic Notre Dame Cathedral with carvings and astronomical clocks, the famous Covered Bridges and fortifications of the Vauban Dam, the elegant Kammerzel Mansion, the Baroque Rogan Palace, as well as the squares of Kleber and Gutenberg. The Palace of Europe and municipal museums add a modern layer to the history of the city, and the embankments and old streets retain the atmosphere of past centuries.
Natural corners and surroundings create a calm contrast with the bustle of the city: the Il River with picturesque banks, parks and green squares within the city, and a little further - the forests of Alsace and hills with vineyards. There are numerous medieval ruins and castles in the vicinity, such as Fleckenstein, Ramstein, Greifenstein, Wangenbourg and others, and the wine roads of the Rhine Valley are called for tastings and leisurely trips along scenic routes.
