| Book Strasbourg flights on CheapOair and take an historical trip to this town, which is situated provocatively on the Franco-German border.

Save more on airfares while booking cheap Strasbourg flights!
The Grande Ile (Big Island) is the heart of the city, encircled by the Ill River and Fosse du Faux-Rempart canal. The dominant landmark in Strasbourg is the Cathedrale Notre-Dame in the Vieille Ville (Old Town). It has remained unchanged since the Middle Ages. The central square is place Kléber – named after the brilliant Strasbourg-born military officer, Jean-Baptiste Kléber. Close by is place Gutenberg. The main streets are remarkably small and pedestrian friendly. The Petite France area in the Grande Ile's southwestern corner, crossed by canals, is Strasbourg's medieval quarter and classed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Its half-timbered houses and narrow streets could not be more different from the ultra-modern City of Europe to the northeast of the city. Grab cheap flights to Strasbourg on CheapOair!
