This year, from January to September, Mulhouse celebrates its 800th anniversary with an artistic effervescence that in places transforms the city into an open-air museum. Exhibitions, lectures, art walks and immersive experiences plunge visitors into the heart of its vibrant history. Once an industrial city, the town has reinvented itself as a hotbed of creativity. Renowned as the "street art capital of Alsace", its walls tell the story of its past and its aspirations through monumental frescoes that we never tire of admiring. A downloadable circuit and guided tours allow you to explore the different facets of this urban metamorphosis. 800 years old and Mulhouse has never been so lively... Ready to (re)discover it?
As you stroll through Mulhouse, one thing strikes you: art has taken over the town! The city's first painted wall dates back to 1552, and the tradition has continued ever since. Today, you can discover art in all its forms in the city: from mural frescoes to iron sculptures and the hijacking of road signs, art is everywhere! In the various districts, the walls are rarely bare, and the artists have left their mark for us to enjoy. At the junction of Rue de l'Arsenal and Grand Rue in Mulhouse, you'll find one of the most beautiful murals in the world by Vinie Graffiti: it was awarded the title in 2021 by the Street Art Cities application. What makes it special? The building's shutters are part of the decor - it's simply fascinating! Shall we take a look?
