Vauban dam near the Ponts Couverts, becoming a place to stroll with a panoramic terrace with an incredible view of the canals

Near the Ponts Couverts, this building, constructed around 1690 by Tarade, enabled the entire southern front of the town to be flooded in the face of a potential enemy assault. Around 1880, the German authorities had the building raised by one storey and covered with earth and grass. Spanning the Ill River, this historic monument is now a popular place to stroll, thanks to the panoramic terrace built by the city of Strasbourg in 1966 at the top of the building. It offers an incredible, unobstructed view of the Petite France district and its canals.

Vu imprenable sur Strasbourg. Si vous passez par là n'hésitez pas c'est gratuit ????. Nous n'en avions pas besoin mais il semblait que l'ascenseur ne fonctionnait pas quand nous étions là.

Still a functional dam. Climb to the top of the establishment is highly recommended. A small climb through the stairs, takes you to the terrace. From the terrace, you get the absolutely beautiful view of Ponts Couverts de Strasbourg with the cathedral standing high and proud in the backdrop. You can admire the beauty of the city and the canals. Night time this place is beautifully lit with the lights, but we could not stop till the nightfall. This sort is worth the visit as you can see the preserved medieval era France.
