Our entire team is pleased to take you on a discovery of the historic district of Petite France, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, through some emblematic places :
 

• Benjamin Zix Square

Close your eyes and imagine yourself in the shade of the plane trees that decorate this square ! A real treat in the middle of summer ! Take advantage of this cool place to admire the panorama that is offered to you, on the old town of Strasbourg and its river.
 

• The Ill : the French river that bathes Alsace

Live the moment to the fullest, by letting yourself embark on the quays of the Ill.
Compared to a small Venice, the locals like to tell that its delta, composed of 5 arms, looks like from above the fingers of a hand wanting to catch the city.
 

• Street of the Bain-aux-Plantes

Take a leap into the past and discover this emblematic passage surrounded by half-timbered houses that was once, the district of the tanners, occupied by many tanneries as the oldest houses still testify with an additional roof, widely open, intended to dry the hides.

This district was also the district of the Mills which was, as its name indicates, populated by millers.
