Find the right area for your travel style

The UNESCO World Heritage island that is the entire centre of Strasbourg: the cathedral, Palais Rohan, the pedestrian shopping squares, the best winstubs, and the Christmas market stalls in December.

The medieval tanners' quarter at the western tip of the Grande Ile: the most photographed houses in Strasbourg hanging over still canals, the Ponts Couverts towers, and the Barrage Vauban with its free rooftop panorama.

The institutional quarter northeast of the Grande Ile: the European Parliament with its free visitor gallery, the Council of Europe, the Court of Human Rights, and the Parc de l'Orangerie where storks nest every spring.

The student and bohemian quarter southeast of the Grande Ile: cheaper food, the best bar scene in Strasbourg, MAMAC modern art (EUR 7), and the free botanical garden of the University of Strasbourg.
