Traveler reviews

  • Arthur Hanlon

    ★★★★a year ago

    I wanted to cross from France into Germany, which was easy enough on the D tram from central Strasbourg. From Kehl Bahnhof I walked back over the bridge. It's not the most attractive or romantic frontier in Europe but the bridge is spectacular.

  • V Katsan

    ★★★★★10 months ago

    The bridge connecting France and Germany is worth a visit just for the amusement of crossing the border on foot
