Exploring Strasbourg - Don't forget to go out in the Dark

Day Four - Fairly Quiet

Well, some days just have to be for resting and not doing very much at all. 

St. Paul's Church - Strasbourg
I must say that the best part of our time in Strasbourg is the 25 minute walk back to our Hotel at night along the Ill River. 

And when you get to see sights like this - it is worth every step!

Saint Paul's Church was built in 1892 and designed for the Lutheran members of the Imperial German Garrison which was stationed in Strasbourg.  It is unusual as it is wider than it is long and has 19 entrance portals to accommodate Military Personal from the Highest Ranks down - Including the Emperor should he come!

We have passed this building many times but have never gone in - nor seen the Pipe Organ which is said to be the largest Instrument in Alsace and most probably Eastern France.
