Today's French region of Alsace (French Alsace, Latin Alsatia) includes the departments of Upper and Lower Rhine or Upper and Lower Alsace (Haut-Rhin and Bas-Rhin; before 1871 Belfort also belonged to it). Together they form a north-south strip between the Vosges to the west and the Rhine to the east.

In the north it borders with Germany, the federal states of Rhineland-Palatinate and Baden-Württemberg, in the south with Switzerland and in the west with the French departments (see Lorraine) Moselle, Vosges and (region) Belfort.

The wine route “route des vins” running from Thann to Marlenheim extends over 170 km. It goes along vineyards, ruins and dreamy wine villages. The Wine Route is an ideal starting point for discovery hikes, interrupted by wine tasting or staying in a winstub. More than 7,000 winegrowers work, mostly in family businesses, along this strip of picture-postcard idyll and bring their wine to a cooperative or market it themselves in one of over 100 wine villages. The delicious good is offered for tasting and sale on every corner.

The city is divided into Grossbasel on the left (south-west) bank of the Rhine and Kleinbasel (including the former fishing village of Kleinhüningen) on the right bank of the Rhine. The center of Basel is the old town in Grossbasel around the market square - where the town hall (start of construction 1504) is - and the cathedral hill towering over the Rhine with the Palatinate Terrace. The middle bridge connects the old town on both sides of the Rhine. The tram operates in the inner city, which is free of car traffic. With the cargo ports in the Basel region, the only ones in Switzerland, there is a waterway connection to the North Sea via the Rhine. Located in Alsace on French territory, Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg Airport is operated jointly with its two neighbors in France. *Wikipedia
