Car Hire in Sarreguemines
Mini guide to Sarreguemines
Sarreguemines
Located close to the German border, Sarreguemines is part of the Lorraine region of France. This corner of northeastern France is heavily influenced by its German neighbour, with the local dialect very close to German.
Sarreguemines was founded by the Romans back in the 12th century. The town had a back-and-forth occupation history with France and Germany, making its heritage very much bi-cultural. The town permanently became part of France after WWI.
Strolling around the town, visitors will find a place with many historic buildings and numerous museums. The key is the Museum of Sarreguemines, which showcases the turbulent history of the town. During the conflicts, Sarreguemines was strategically important due to its geographic location. The Saar River and later the French fortification on the Marginot Line were important defences and transportation routes.
Once you’ve had your fill of military history, head to the casino in Sarreguemines, one of the favourite attractions for locals and visitors. Located right on the River Saar, the casino is housed in a beautiful period mansion.
Sarreguemines can easily be reached by hire car from the German city of Saarbrücken, roughly 10 miles (16kms) away. There is even a tram-train that connects the two cities, taking less than 30 minutes. The French cities of Metz and Strasbourg are only 40 miles (64kms) and 60 miles (97kms) away respectively.
The train is a good option to reach Sarreguemines, but if you are interested in exploring the Lorraine region, a hire car is the easiest and most convenient option. Rental cars are best booked online in advance, where the cheapest deals can be found in minutes.
