Aubette

Overview

The Aubette is a listed historic monument located on Place Kléber in Strasbourg. Built on the site of a former monastery and reconstructed after fire damage, the complex features interiors redesigned by avant-garde artists in the early 20th century. Travelers visit to view these preserved modernist geometric rooms and historical architectural spaces.

Getting There

The building stands directly on Place Kléber in the center of Strasbourg. Walking from most locations within the city center takes 2 to 5 minutes. The primary local transit hub at Homme de Fer is also less than a two-minute walk away.

Time to Allow

Plan to spend between 30 and 45 minutes inside to tour the restored rooms and view the interior designs.

When to Visit

Weekday mornings and early afternoons typically have fewer visitors. While the surrounding square can become crowded during peak tourist seasons and weekends, the interior exhibition areas generally see moderate foot traffic.

Nearby Attractions

A visit can easily be combined with several neighboring sites within short walking distance:

  • Place Kléber (0.1km): The city's main public square situated directly outside the building.
  • Grande Île, Strasbourg (0.2km): The central historic island district.
  • Saint-Pierre-le-Jeune Protestant Church (0.2km): A historic church located just north of the square.
  • Temple Neuf (0.2km): A Protestant church situated to the east.
