The Temptator

Among the most well known : the gateway of wise virgins and mad virgins.

The seducter, gracious, offers an apple to the boldest mad virgins who is about to slip of her dress.

The Green Ray

Visible twice a year at the equinox, this ray of light which many talk about, troubles the bishop.

* The Petite France quarter

	Formerly the quarter of the tanners, millers and fishers. It is now a heaven of peace in the heart of the city. The streets are lined with half-timbered 16th and 17th c. Houses with vast internal courtyards and equally vast, steepy sloping roofs with open lofts where the skins used to be dried.

* Strasbourg the European

New York, Geneva and Strasbourg: the only cities in the world that welcome international institutions without being capitals of state. The choice of Strasbourg as European capital on the following day of the second world conflict did not happen by chance, but is the symbol of the reconciliation between the people and the future of Europe. Visiting the heart of Europe is also an opportunity to discover fascinating contemporary architecture.
