All about Strasbourg

When to visit

Strasbourg is bursting with festive magic over the Christmas season when the city hosts France’s largest and most famous Christmas Market. Expect huge crowds and high accommodation prices throughout November and December, especially on weekends in the run-up to the big day. Summer (July-August) can be just as busy, so opt for a late spring or early fall trip instead, when you’ll be able to enjoy crowd-free sightseeing and still make the most of the warm weather.

Getting around

Strasbourg’s Grande Ile, the central island encircled by the River Ill, is entirely pedestrianized, so the best way to explore is on foot or by bike. To venture further, hop on the tram, which will take you from the Grand Ile to the European Quarter and beyond, or rent a bike and discover the 370-mile (600-kilometer) network of bike trails in and around the city center.

Traveler tips

Do as the locals do, and pick up some picnic supplies from the open-air market on Place Broglie (open Wednesday and Friday mornings) and head to the Parc de l’Orangerie. Among many things to do, the vast park has nature trails, a boating lake, and plenty of picnic spots. It’s also a popular place to view wild storks, the symbol of the Alsace.


Frequently Asked Questions

How do I spend a day in Strasbourg?
