GERBERAU & FISCHERAU STREETS
Read moreThese are small parallel alleys along the canal, south of the university and west of the Schwabentor. Retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city center, immersing yourself in the atmosphere of the city's most picturesque old districts. The houses bordering these alleys were occupied by tanners and fishermen who gave them their names. In medieval times, these two professions that needed large quantities of water had settled beside the creek for more convenience. Today, these pedestrian alleys are among the most beautiful in the old town and make tourists happy, happy to dive back in the past.

LA BALANCOIRE DREISAM-SCHAUKEL
Read moreExplore the mystery of the Dreisamschaukel, a swing suspended between Schwabentorbrücke and Kaiserbrücke. Its origin is as bewitching as the experience of swinging your feet over the undulating Dreisam. Hanging mysteriously on the Mariensteg, this swing requires wet feet and a dose of balance on slippery stones. Who came up with the idea remains a mystery, but the Dreisamschaukel is recognized as the city's most beautiful swing.
