Strasbourg is really a safe place. It is not like Paris or Marseille, it is a big city but I always feel safe there. I go out in the night, and, even if I don't trust men, nothing happened to me yet, so I think you all might feel safe too.
Posted: August 20, 2025Strasbourg is a safe city! As a woman, it’s one of the cities where I feel the safest, but of course there are always exceptions: the train station area and certain streets in the city center late at night can be complicated (especially place Homme de fer).
Posted: August 1, 2025Just be careful while taking the tramways, hide your smartphones. Don't pay attention to the people asking you to sign a petition. Otherwise the city is rather safe. The cities outside of Strasbourg are also safe (and worthy of your visit)
Posted: July 11, 2025The city center is rather safe in general to walk in and discover solo, including at night. But as anywhere else, there are some neighbourhoods (such as Elsau, Neuhof, Hautepierre...) which are better to avoid even for locals. Those neighbourhoods though are not touristic areas.
Posted: July 7, 2025For Strasbourg is safe but sometimes you might meet strange people but I think it’s safe for a woman to walk alone during the day and maybe a little bit less at night but there’s not much worry to have, I was born there and I never encountered real problems. People there are also very nice in general i think. And what is nice is that we’re really close to Germany ( Kehl) which is also safe

I was in Strasburg for 2 days with two female friends during the Christmas period and it was not too crowded the energy that ambience was amazing. It rained a little but overall great. We booked an Airbnb that was like almost $100 a night for 3 which is not too bad. The room was fantastic!!! We tried a restaurant that was in front of the famous cathedral, service and price was great, but the food was… eh. It was not fresh. We didn’t get out super late in the night so we don’t know but in general it’s still felt safe. The whole city only had like three trams, which is a little funny
