Hertz Car Rental in Strasbourg
The city of Strasbourg is the capital of Alsace on France’s north-eastern border. It lies on the western side of the River Rhine, connected by a bridge to the German town of Kehl on the opposite bank. If you pick up a rental car in Strasbourg you’ll find that it sits amid flat farmland between the French Vosges mountains in the west and Germany’s Black Forest hills to the east. The city has a UNESCO World Heritage Old Town at its heart, where you can explore the ‘Grand Ile’ – the acclaimed area of historic buildings alongside the river. Look out for the Notre Dame Cathedral and the Palais du Rhin.
If you have a rental car in Strasbourg you’ll be able to see the attractions, including the historic city centre, and sights that are further afield, like the medieval fortified towns and villages of Colmar, Saverne and Hagenau. Strasburg also stands next to a motorway giving good access to Basel to the south and Metz to the northwest. There are modern attractions too: don’t miss the landmark buildings housing the European Parliament and the European Court of Human Rights, or the junction of the Rhine-Rhone Canal with the river itself.
