Transport / Facts & figures Basel can look back on over 2,000 years of history. There was a settlement here back in Celtic times – and for good reason. Its geographic location between Vosges, the Black Forest and the Jura Mountains gives our city an exceptional amount of sunshine and one of the warmest climates in Switzerland. As well as encouraging a growing number of people to move to Basel, this is drawing more and more major companies to the city each year. Population of the canton of Basel Transport Approx. 197,000 Basel is conveniently located at the Three Countries’ Corner of Switzerland, Germany and France with top-class international transport connections by air, rail and water as well as a comprehensive motorway network.

Economy In the Basel region you find a unique concentration of innovative firms, research institutes and universities, a cosmopolitan culture, an international atmosphere and market friendly conditions. The city on the Rhine is regarded as the centre of Swiss life sciences and the chemical-pharmaceutical industry and holds important companies in the logistics, transport and financial industry. In addition, Basel is considered Switzerland’s most important trade fair and congress location. Marseille Barcelona History In ancient times, Basel was already settled by the Celts. The city’s strategically advantageous location induced the Romans to station military contingents on the Cathedral Hill around 30 B.C. Another defining event for the city was the founding of the university in 1460, which attracted many scholars to the city and led to its development as a centre of humanism and printing. The Reformation eventually brought silk-weaving and dyeing to Basel, which developed into today’s pharmaceutical and chemical companies. Furthermore, Basel received the right to hold trade fairs as early as in the 15th century. Today, the formerly fortified city is a centre of culture, trade and finance. 41 The Rhine and the Mittlere Brücke: Basel at sunrise. Supporting programmes Go on a voyage of discovery.
