Saverne
Saverne is 23 km north-west of Strasbourg in the Bas-Rhin department of Alsace.
Saverne has long been important as a gateway for trade, due to its position at the end of a pass through the Vosges mountains. It is stall a good base from which to explore these mountains and the surrounding region.
The main 'big' site in the town - and big it is - is the Chateau des Rohans, constructed at the end of the 18th century for the powerful clergy of Strasbourg. The neoclassical style and sombre rock from which it is built don't make it the most lovely building in Alsace.
The pretty, narrow streets lined with medieval steep-rooved houses make a pleasant contrast, in this active little town, and are well worth a visit, as is the interior of the Church of Notre-Dame.
The town Rose Garden, on the edge of the river and with several hundreds of varieties of rose planted, is also a very popular attraction with visitors.
If you are staying near Saverne, you should explore some of the pretty villages such as Bouxwiller and Neuwiller.
