Intro

Strasbourg is the focal point of the Alsace region in France and is just over the border, across the Rhine River, from Germany. Featuring numerous historical churches and buildings alongside a modern city atmosphere, Strasbourg allows you to drift between the old and modern world at your leisure. With its convenient location, it’s not only a great city to spend time in but also a great home base for a plethora of day trips, including jaunts to spectacular wineries, amazingly preserved medieval towns, and to the Black Forest in Germany. We recommend five days (with day trips) here.
