Welcome to Breisach
Information in English language for our guests from abroad
Our charming city is located on the banks of the Rhine and therefore forms the link between the two holiday regions of the Black Forest and Alsace. The town's landmark is St. Stephen's Cathedral, which towers over the town and the Rhine. From here, you have a magnificent view of the Rhine plain, the Black Forest to the east, and the Vosges mountains to the west. From Breisach, you can easily explore the region on both sides of the Rhine by bike, bus, train, car, on foot, or even by boat.
