The city is in the famous Alsace-Lorraine region. Due to its rich mineral wealth, it has been passed back and forth between France and Germany for a century, before WWII finally gave it back to France.
We were only there for a day (less than 24 hours in fact), but it was enough to know that it was worth the fight. It is a beautiful city.
It is also home to the Council of Europe and the European Court of Human Rights which explains our time there.
