Traveler reviews
Roberto Borraggine
★★★★★4 weeks agoPlace Kléber is the heart of Strasbourg, surrounded by historic buildings and dominated by the statue of General Jean-Baptiste Kléber. Having visited in December, my girlfriend and I had the opportunity to see its most spectacular side: with the monumental Christmas tree, the square becomes a magical and enchanting place where you can fully experience the Christmas atmosphere.
Alicia Folds
★★★★★8 months agoBeautiful square in Strasbourg, right next to the Cathedral and an abundance of shops, cozy cafes and restaurants. In the winter it turns into a magical Christmas wonderland. The storefronts are decorated to the nines with elaborate decorations, branches, bows, wreaths and other beautiful adornments. Excellent gathering and meeting spot when shopping, as it is centrally located in the middle of several different directions of shops. I highly recommend a visit during the Christmas season and in random Saturday's, as they always have a fresh market going on. You can buy tons of fresh produce, fresh creams and yogurts, meat pies and all sorts of yummy treats.
