About Saarland
Amongst Germany’s smallest states, the verdant Saarland borders Luxembourg to the west, and France to the south. A land of densely forested hills, descending into the valley of the mighty Saar River, it’s a wonderful region for ramblers and nature lovers. The banks of the river are dotted with towns and villages, as well as the city of Saarbrücken — the region’s capital. It’s in this attractive little city that one of the best places to stay in Saarland in set; many of the others are tucked within the countryside.
Saarbrücken is the ideal starting point for a trip around the region. The city dates back 1,000 years, and its gorgeous old town brims with well-preserved Baroque edifices, winding alleyways and historic churches. Saarbrücken Castle is a highlight, as are the medieval ruins hidden underneath the Schlossplatz. The region’s other fascinating cultural hub is lovely Saarlouis, a fortified town built by the French King in 1680. A charming spot, it’s also well worth exploring.
Venture into the countryside for hiking and cycling trails, as well as opportunities to kayak, swim and sail on the region's lakes and rivers. Ancient forests are great for bird watching, whilst cruises on the Saar River are not to be miss. This intruging region's cuisine takes its influences from France and Luxeumbourg -- foodies will adore the offerings at the best places to stay in Saarland!
