Basel, Switzerland



Basel is Switzerland's third most populous city with about 166,000 inhabitants. It is located where the Swiss,
French and German borders meet. Basel also has suburbs in France and Germany, with 830,000 inhabitants
in the tri-national urban agglomeration. Basel is Switzerland's second-largest metropolitan area. Located in
northwest Switzerland on the river Rhine, Basel functions as a major centre for the chemical and pharma-
ceutical industry. The Basel region, culturally extending into German Baden-Wurttemberg and French Alsace,
reflects the heritage of its three states in the modern Latin name: Regio TriRhena. Basel is mainly German-
speaking.
