About Saarlouis
Founded by the French Sun King Louis XIV — and named after him — Saarlouis was originally a riverside fortress. Close to Germany’s borders with France and Luxembourg, the town has a fascinating history, and retains elements of its Francophile identity to this day. Popular with heritage aficionados as well as travellers seeking simply to unwind in beautiful surroundings, the town has a burgeoning number of great accommodation options. Our Gurus’ pick of the best places to stay in Saarlouis is a chic boutique hotel, perfect for guests of all ages.
Built in 1680, Saarlouis still has the feel of a fortress. At its centre is an enormous marketplace, lined by leafy trees. Step into the cool interior of St Ludwig’s Church, take a refreshing drink from one of the square’s wells, or step into the area’s multitude of boutiques and department stores. Guided tours of the old town come highly recommended, as do leisurely strolls to the many cafés, bars and eateries which line its pretty streets.
For an insight into the Saarland’s industrial history, tour the nearby Völklingen Ironworks, now transformed into a museum. Venture further afield to hike, cycle and ramble along the River Saar and at nearby Litermont Mountain. Boat trips are a beautiful way to discover the region during the summer months, when you can also expect gorgeous sunshine. This is also the most popular time to visit, so the best places to stay in Saarlouis can fill up fast!
