Our school trips to Alsace offer your students the chance to take in two countries at once. This French region perching right on the Franco-German border, a mere stone’s throw over the Rhine from Germany, is home to a host of exciting educational sites. Alsace is a fantastic destination for history and battlefields tours, as well as citizenship and learning trips. Explore the Maginot line defences to help your students get a better understanding of the hardships of life on the frontline during WWI, and how France sought to prevent a recurrence. There’s no better way to get your students excited about the history on the pages of their textbooks than with a school trip to Alsace, where it all happened. Or if you’d prefer to focus more on the present day, the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg offers the perfect opportunity to ignite interest and discussion on the subject of civil liberties.
