Strasbourg is situated on the banks of the Rhine in the north east of France and is the capital of the Alsace region.  Strasbourg is an important European city, being the home of The Council of Europe, The European Court of Human Rights and the European Parliament and many other institutions.  The city is very picturesque with stunning examples of medieval European architecture and its natural setting on the river and its canals.  The city is a cross between Germany and France, with the German influence very evident, particularly through some of the city’s architecture dating from the German renaissance.

 

Strasbourg Cathedral

 

Strasbourg Cathedral (Cathédrale de Nôtre Dame) is an engineering marvel, towering some 142 metres over the city.  The cathedral took 250 years to construct and construction was completed in 1439.  There is a viewing platform at the cathedral which offers stunning views over Strasbourg, Vosges and the Black Forrest.  The cathedral also houses an astronomical clock.  The clock is over 160 years old.  Be there at 12:30 each day to see the ‘Procession of the Apostles’.     

 

Museums

 

If you like museums, then you really are spoilt for choice in Strasbourg.  The city is home to many museums of different varieties, from Musée Archéologique, which provides and insight into the history of Alsace and Strasbourg, to Centre Tomi Ungerer, which celebrates the works of Tomi Ungerer, the famous children’s author.  Museum cards are available for purchase, which allow you access to Strasbourg’s museums.  One day, three day and yearly passes are available.

 

Strasbourg Hospital’s (Hôpital Civil) Wine Cellar

 

The city’s hospital (Hôpital Civil) houses a wine cellar beneath its corridors.  The cellar dates back to 1395, at this time it was believed that wine could cure some illnesses, hence the cellar beneath the hospital.  Today, the cellar contains a selection of carefully selected Alsatian wines, which are available for purchase by visitors.  There is a wine museum in the cellar and tours are also available for a small fee.  The wine cellar is open Monday to Friday and occasionally opens on Saturdays.
