Your travel guide to Grand-Est
When the regions of Alsace, Champagne-Ardenne and Lorraine in eastern France were brought together in 2016, the new region of Grand Est was born. It includes no less than ten different departments including Bas-Rhin, Moselles, Vosges and Ardennes. The largest city in the region, which also serves as its administrative centre, is Strasbourg. Grand Est borders Switzerland, to the south, Germany, to the east, and Luxembourg as well as Belgium to its north. Grand Est takes up over 22,000 square miles of land, much of it put to use for agriculture.
