Unesco world heritage-listed german district, testimony to imperial german town planning
Strasbourg’s Neustadt district, also known as the “Ville Nouvelle”, is an impressive example of 19th-century German urban planning. Established after the annexation of Alsace by the German Empire, it features wide avenues, imposing neo-Renaissance and neo-Baroque buildings and generous green spaces.
The Opera House, Palais du Rhin and Palais Universitaire are among its architectural gems. Tree-lined avenues and elegant squares add to the charm of this district where history, culture and remarkable architecture come together, offering visitors a unique immersion in Strasbourg’s glorious past.
