Mulhouse, Industrial heritage city in Alsace, France
Mulhouse stands between the borders of Switzerland and Germany, with the Doller and Ill rivers flowing through its urban districts at 240 meters elevation.
The city transformed from a free Calvinist republic into a French territory in 1798 through a referendum during the French Revolution period.
