About Mulhouse

Close to eastern France’s Swiss and German borders, lively Mulhouse is a fascinating Alsace destination for a holiday. Although much of the Old Town was destroyed during WWII, this post-industrial hub still boasts a number of historic buildings, as well as some fantastic museums and boutiques. With a vibrant evening scene, it’s ideal for partygoers as well as keen hikers or cyclists who will appreciate the proximity to Germany’s Black Forest. Accommodation options range from self-catering spots to cosy B&Bs, with the best places to stay in Mulhouse catering to couples, friends and families alike.

Explore the Old Town on foot to admire Place de la Réunion, the 16th-century Cour des Chaînes, and the neo-Gothic Temple Saint-Étienne. Shoppers will adore the pedestrianised Rue du Sauvage, whilst culture aficionados won’t want to miss the Musée des Beaux Arts or the Musée Historique de Mulhouse. Petrolheads and science fans need look no further than the Musée National de l’Automobile, which exhibits cars dating back to 1878, the Musée Electropolis and the Cité du Train. Little ones will love Mulhouse Zoo and the Botanic Gardens.

Venture beyond the city to follow the famed Alsace Vineyard Route, or to hike, cycle and horse ride in the Black Forest and in the surrounding countryside. Return to one of the best places to stay in Mulhouse to freshen up before discovering the city's many bars and eateries.
