Known to all and rich of more than 2000 years of history, Strasbourg is known for its famous Christmas market but not only that, Strasbourg is also the European Capital. Thanks to its emblematic European quarter, which includes no less than 9 institutions, Strasbourg is one of the few cities in the world to host European institutions, without necessarily being a capital.
Just a few minutes from its renowned historical centre, the European Parliament represents the heart of the European Union.
