Outside the island centre, Strasbourg's districts range from the German-era Neustadt and student Krutenau to the station quarter and leafy Robertsau. These guides describe what each is like and what to see.

    Krutenau Strasbourg Guide: Where to Stay and Eat

    The Krutenau is Strasbourg's busy left-bank quarter, pressed against the Grande Île and a short step from Petite France. It suits travellers who want cafés, terraces and a village feel inside the city, and it is less suited to anyone chasing silence.

  • Venue view: Église Saint-Pierre-le-Jeune and the Palais de Justice in Strasbourg's Neustadt. Resized and converted to WebP.

    Neustadt Strasbourg: A Guide to the Imperial German Quarter

    The Neustadt is Strasbourg's planned imperial German extension, a ring of avenues and civic palaces wrapped around the medieval Grande-Île. It rewards a half-day on foot, especially around Place de la République and the axis running from the Palais du Rhin to the Palais universitaire.

    Quartier de la Gare, Strasbourg: A Neighbourhood Guide

    Strasbourg's Quartier de la Gare is the practical, workaday quarter wrapped around the city's main station, not a postcard district. Here is what it offers a short-break visitor, how the tram line F has reshaped it, where to find its street art, and who should base themselves here rather than in the old town.

    Robertsau Strasbourg: Where to Stay and Eat in a Short Break

    Robertsau is Strasbourg's northernmost quarter, a former market-gardening district that is now mostly residential. It works as a quiet base near the European institutions rather than as a sightseeing hub, and this guide sets out what is in the area, how far it sits from the centre and who should stay closer in instead.
