Saverne, Medieval commune in Bas-Rhin, France

The town lies at the foot of the Vosges Mountains alongside the Rhine-Marne canal, 45 kilometers northwest from Strasbourg at 200 meters elevation.

Originally named Tres Tabernae Caesaris during Roman times, the settlement contained three inns on the route to the Lorraine plateau before destruction by Alemanni forces.

The Rohan Castle, constructed in 1779 by Cardinal de Rohan, houses the city museum with collections of Roman and Celtic artifacts from the region.

The Saverne train station connects travelers to Paris, Strasbourg, Metz, and Nancy, while the A4 motorway provides direct access north of the town.

The International Contest of New Roses takes place annually in Saverne, featuring over 550 rose varieties in the municipal garden La Roseraie.
