European Parliament | Strasbourg

I worked as a staff member during the EYE event at the European Parliament in Strasbourg. It was a great experience! I helped with the flow of participants and supported the event. The team was professional, and I met many people from different countries. The building was very modern and beautiful. The architecture was open and full of light. It felt special to work in such an important place. I’m happy I was part of this event and saw how young people can share ideas for Europe’s future.

Great place to visit if you are in any way interested in politics or the European Union. The day we went (mid September) it was not busy and didn’t have to wait anywhere. Don’t forget to bring your passport since there is a hefty security check. Entry is free and you don’t have to book in advance.

I didn’t get a chance to get inside the building, so comment is only about its looks. Intentionally left looking unfinished as a sign of openness to new member countries, it could also be interpreted as a future sign of decay with countries leaving it.

Wonderful place to visit in Straßbourg. The entrance was very easy with ID-Card. From the rooftop, you can overlook the whole city and all of its important monuments. Inside the building are nice exhibitions focused on the EU, the current council presidency, Louise Weiss, and even seasonal projects like artworks from European youth. You get an audio guide and can play around with many installations to learn more about the EU. There is even a café and many interesting magazines to take home for free. A must on any trip to Straßburg 🇪🇺

The place is very beautiful and interesting. It tells story about European Union in the best way.🇪🇺

Really interesting visit with signs in French and English. Audio guide in multiple languages. Free. Good view of Strasbourg from the roof terrace.

Visiting the European Parliament in Strasbourg is generally a smooth and enjoyable experience. Access to the building is straightforward, with clear security procedures such as checking IDs. Once inside, visitors are guided by well-marked signs, making it easy to follow the tour path. The architecture of the building is striking and modern, adding to the overall experience of seeing a key European institution up close. It’s a great opportunity to learn more about how the EU functions and to explore an impressive space.

Everything was for free! You just have to show your passport and get your Badge. Free audio guides are also available on the third floor.
