Pictures from Basel

Here are a few images from my recent trip to Basel, Switzerland. Basel is located on the Rhine and has a beautiful Old Town and Basel Minster, a Catholic Cathedral (now a Protestant Church) that was built between 1020 and 1500.

Georgsturm and Martinsturm, the two towers of Basel Minster.

St George and the dragon on the facade of Basel Minster

Rathaus Basel, or the Basel Town Hall, in the Marketplatz (with bonus Piadina Stand!)

Basel’s heraldic animal, the basilisk. To be seen in several places around the city.

Lovely homes along the River Rhine in Basel.
