The city of Strasbourg
History
Founded by the Romans in 12 BC, Strasbourg has always occupied a strategic position in Europe.
Situated at a meeting point of the North-South and East-West communication routes, the town has benefited from commerce of all kinds.
During the 11th century, construction work got underway on the cathedral, a project which would last for 250 years.
The choice of Strasbourg as the seat of the European parliament after World War II is no accident.
The city stands as a symbol of reconciliation between peoples of Europe.
Gastronomy
In Strasbourg, cooking is also an art of living. Traditional Alsatian specialties such as sauerkraut, baeckeoffe,
flambé tart, spaetzle and wines can be best enjoyed in the "winstubs", local Alsatian taverns known for their friendly atmosphere.
Strasbourg is renowned for its hundreds of restaurants and brasseries offering the latest culinary trends and dishes from all around
the world.
Sightseeing
In addition to the magnificent gothic cathedral, la “petite France” is the most picturesque district of old Strasbourg.
Fishermen, millers and tanners once lived and worked in this part of town where the streets have been built level with the waterways.
The magnificent half-timbered houses date from the 16th and 17th centuries.
