This circular route runs successively along the Nouveau Bassin, the Canal de Jonction and the Canal du Rhône au Rhin, before crossing the Nordfeld district. Departure and arrival are at the southern end of the Nouveau Bassin (tram N°2, stop Nordfeld-Filature).
The Nouveau Bassin (970m long and 40m wide) was built in 1872 on the bed of the Ill to serve as a new river port in Mulhouse, replacing the Vieux Bassin (in front of the Central Station). The activity of the Nouveau Bassin ceased in 1962 following the opening of the Ile Napoléon port.
This area was once the entrance to the city at the motorway exit (1981 to 1997), and is now a tree-lined promenade with a sculpture garden.
This concerted development zone (ZAC) was created on the site of the former Place du 14 juillet, which hosted the Foire-Exposition from 1934 to 1995.
It is located on the site of the former abattoirs (1888-1988). Next to it are the Raynaud Columns (Space), which have marked the entrance to the city since 2002. At the foot of the columns, you can see an old milestone dating from 1760, identical to those that marked the boundaries of the Free Republic of Mulhouse.
They were created in 1875 with 2 pools and a restaurant. These baths, once served by the tramway going to Ensisheim, owed their name to the water from the Rhine arriving via the Rhone to Rhine canal and the Huningue canal.
