Overview
On this self-guided tour, you'll waltz past colourful half-timber houses in the quaint French-German city of Strasbourg. Strasbourg’s Grand Île, the island at its heart, was the first city centre to be given UNESCO World Heritage Status in 1988. On this self-paced tour, you’ll explore its quaint cobbled lanes and historical buildings and hear a few of its fascinating, sometimes quirky, stories.
You’ll stroll along the picturesque streets of La Petite France, as the district is often called. Along the way, you’ll learn about Strasbourg’s rich history, from a free city under the Holy Roman Empire in the 1200s to one that was transferred from French to German rule and back again in the 1800s and 1900s. I’ll also show you its many historical landmarks, point out its gorgeous architecture, and share a few quirky anecdotes.
Join me on this adventure through time and discover the magic of this charming Alsatian city.
