‘Official Host City’ Basel
The City of Basel stands where the Rhine leaves Switzerland to flow towards the North Sea – it is a charming city on the bend of the Rhine. Here, Switzerland borders France and Germany, and Basel lies in the heart of the ‘Dreiländereck’ three-border triangle. The city owes its cosmopolitan flair, commercial power and pioneering spirit to this unique location. It’s not just Basel residents but many new citizens and tourists who appreciate Basel’s high quality of life.
Basel is a vibrant arts and cultural metropolis. No other European city offers a comparable concentration of high-quality museums. As an events capital, Basel is also much talked about, for example, as the regular host of the Swiss Indoors tennis tournament and currently, as the ‘Official Host City’ of the World Men's Curling Championship 2012.
