Our Favourite Places in Strasbourg for a Sensory and Gourmet Weekend

A city of culture, heritage, and gastronomy, Strasbourg offers a wealth of activities for those wishing to escape for a weekend, whether as a couple, with family, or among friends. While this city can certainly be discovered with the eyes, it is also appreciated through smell, taste, touch, and hearing. 
Between immersive activities, culinary discoveries, and unexpected places, Strasbourg offers countless ways to reconnect with your senses. 

Begin your weekend with a sensory stroll through the emblematic Place Broglie market, where local producers showcase their treasures. Sun-ripened fruits, matured cheeses, colourful spices… every stall stimulates the senses. Take the time to smell, taste, and chat. Meeting artisans directly allows you to immerse yourself in Alsatian culture. 
It is also the perfect opportunity to pick up some local specialities to take home: gingerbread, kougelhopf, or artisanal jams.

Continue your sensory journey in the emblematic Petite France district, a true architectural jewel of Strasbourg. Take the time to pause, listen, touch the old stones, or admire the details of a flower-decked balcony. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, this area is one of the best places to truly absorb the spirit of Strasbourg. An open-air sensory experience, blending emotion and contemplation.

For those with a sweet tooth, a visit to the Les Secrets du Chocolat museum is unmissable. Just a few minutes from the city centre, this venue offers an interactive journey into the world of cocoa, from bean to bar. You’ll discover the stages of production, take part in sensory workshops, and of course, taste different varieties of chocolate. 
It’s an activity that is both fun and delicious, perfect for families. Children will be delighted, and adults will be surprised by the diversity of flavours.

To awaken your sense of touch and give your mind a rest, treat yourself to a moment of relaxation at Strasbourg’s municipal baths. Recently restored, the baths combine Art Nouveau charm with a touch of modernity. 
It’s the ideal place to reconnect with yourself in a calm, soothing atmosphere. After a long walk around the city, your muscles will thank you.

If you’d like to continue your sensory exploration in nature, don’t miss the botanical garden of the University of Strasbourg. Its greenhouses transport you from one climate to another—tropical humidity, desert aridity, or alpine coolness. 
Every plant tells a story. Some release powerful scents, others have soft or rough leaves. A calming walk, ideal for wonder and curiosity.

End your sensory weekend in the best possible way with a unique dinner in complete darkness. In our restaurant, you’ll be invited to experience an extraordinary sensory adventure. 
Deprived of sight, your other senses are suddenly heightened. Flavours take on a whole new dimension, textures surprise you, sounds become more vivid.
